Going through the dash wiring harness so I can install dash. Since my screws holding the electrical components diminished in size with rust and the dash delaminated, most of the electrical components screwed to back of the dash (washer pump, voltage stabilizer, buzzers etc.) were just hanging there. I have no real idea where they go.

I looked for a pic in the manual but didn’t see one…is there one somewhere 

Heater switch wouldn’t move due to rusty rocker switch pivot , got it apart and moving …

The washer pump is screwed to the bottom part of the dash (that is covered up by the console) on the driver's side. The flashers are mounted to the left of the washer pump so the washer pump is toward the center. I think the voltage stabilizer is screwed under the last gauge next to the glove box. I threw my buzzers away so I don't remember where they go but as I remember, one of them was hanging from the tach or speedo...

That's generally where they go. You'll have to see exactly where there's room.

Thanks BDA!  So the washer pump is on the front side of the dash?  I sat on the passenger seat “sensor” most of the day ….it’s not comfortable and getting removed!

The washer pump is behind the dash when sitting in the seat. Same with the flashers. Sorry, I wasn’t clear!

Got it!

If you don't have an owner's manual, I suggest that it can be useful toward knowing what goes where on the dash.  It doesn't show the back side, but still.... useful to know what's on the 'front' side.

Finished cleaning dash electrical connections… now in DB10 removal and reinstallation hell ….

DB10 back in, made a couple of jumper wires and tested the windshield wiper motor and mechanism with my battery charger and they move smoothly so I’m not fooling with them. Removed the hood/bonnet/frunk latch seal as the screws were quite rusty, removed the wiper spray nozzles and cleaned them in the ultrasonic cleaner and some other misc. stuff.

After looking at the EV discussion made me think …. I have wanted build a BEC (bike engined car) for quite some time …. got a really light weight car and CBR1000R engine …. Hmmmmm

Thoughts?
