Please help! C2 spoiler wiring/ Heater relay wiring diagram

[ben parrish]

I have spent two hours searching through post but I just can't find the wiring diagram for the heater relay(engine compartment) wiring diagram. I want to use the wires from the heater control knob (between the seats) for another purpose. I am going to use them for wiring a C2 spoiler in my Carrera.
I don't have an engine blower anylonger and thought it would be the easiest way to wire the spoiler. Anyone have the diagram or a better way to get wires from the Autoloc to the spoiler?
thanks,
Ben

I think Tyson or Jack Olsen posted a wiring diag for the Autoloc a few years ago? I have it at the other house somewhere.

I just installed the C2 spoiler without the Autoloc. It's a momentary switch for up and down. Member Milt is doing an install right now so he may have some info on what he's doing.

Ronnie, thanks for the response. I have the wiring instructions for the autoloc from a previous post. My problem is I am not sure of how to route wires from the switch and autoloc unit into the engine compartment. I don't want to drill any holes into the firewall and thought that I could use the wires from my heater controll dial between the seats.
How did you run wires to the spoiler from your switch?

I have the wiring instructions for the autoloc
---- then you know how to hook up the Autoloc to the spoiler?

My problem is I am not sure of how to route wires from the switch and autoloc unit into the engine compartment.
----- I don't know how many heater wires or where they run to? I'm guessing that the Autoloc has low current feed control wires and larger wires going to the spoiler motor? If so maybe mount the Autoloc in the engine compartment where the heater wires might be?

I don't want to drill any holes into the firewall and thought that I could use the wires from my heater control dial between the seats.
----------- Maybe? And there may be plenty of extra harness wiring going to the engine comp 14 pin electric panel from the harness that exits from the front of the cabin tunnel that's available?


How did you run wires to the spoiler from your switch?
------ My C2 motor's current supply came from the switch so I ran 14ga. Many engine comp wiring stacked up along the outside of my tunnel and ran through the shifter hole. Long story and pics later if you have to run wires.



somebody who already installed the Autoloc will read this eventually.

I think the issue is if you want to use the Autoloc or a manual momentary switch to operate the spoiler? The wiring for the Autoloc and cabin switch wires should be easier?

i just helped a guy install my old one in another pelicans car. you need a minimum of three wires from th auto loc to the rear compartment. i found the cleanest way is to use the four wire trailer lights stuff. four different colors, stays tight for routing to under the seat in the carpet folds to the autoloc and lastly, using the trailer wire disconnect in the motor compartment it is not "hard wired" in. that way if you ever remove the deck you just unplug the connector and presto. one 1/4 or 5/16 hole drilled in the fire wall will do. the 1st hole is the hardest to drill, it gets easier..... we drilled through the fire wall just were the carpet meets the vertical portion of the parcell shelf.

i dont think the autoloc would last in the heat of the motor compartment.

Thank you to all that answered.
Last night I remembered, at 3:00am, that there is a wiring bundle that passes through the foot well behind the driver. I made a little harness with four wires and shrinked wrap it. I fed it beside this bundle then up into the engine compartment with beside the a/c line. A quick disconnect at the spoiler and that part was done. I mounted the window switch in the heater controll case between the seats and placed the autoloc inside of it.
The install looks clean and works well.
