The CRV and Insight for those years use the same part...................

 

Just went down on my car and all pins are on there on the Q connector.... None missing yey!
as per mi honda parts book, my fit is a H11, the ones with paddlers are H7, H8
There is only a better model the H12.... Thanks to that I can do upgrades and DIYs...

Original part for Fit here is 35256-SWA-A02 which is for GE6/8 and RE2 ( base CRV 2010)
Here CRVs ( 2010 high end models) use same part number.... 35256-SWA-A11

^^^ Ahahaha... lol




I tell ya... I don't know how you some of you guys were actually able to take pictures of those parts/locations... wow.... I was working on my back on the floor mat, with the back of my head on the brake pedal trying to do several things with one hand (more like 3-4 fingers), even closed my eyes to help "visualize" the pin placement in the connector... my hand hurts just thinking about that mod...




but it was ALL WORTH IT!

 

Me and Luca ( thats how we call our car) have had moments.... hehehehe have gone down few times already lol
I am a Physician, Surgeon educated for that matter and I learnt that your hands can be your eyes...and in situations like this, you just let your imagination run wild with your wife's mirror.... :-) My wife helped with the pictures...

 

Continuing the Homework:
....and you may think why i'm doing all this is because it give us a picture of all the options and gives us maybe a chance to do more or just make sure that there is nothing else we can do with our electronic system...

Now... you can compare the different models of CRV here in China, 2007 model had English title next to the variable part and PAY attention to the direction of the variable ring, high to low. No rain logo, just INT TIME. Back only has ON OFF. Still is angled.

The 2010, is angled, but then CRV comes in 2 versions, base and high, The base one uses the same as the FIT GE version, and the high end comes with a variable WITH RAIN drops on it, and the variable goes from LOW To HIGH ( - and +). Still back is ON OFF.

But the 2012 CRV ( also base and High models), has NOT angled stick, the ADJUST letters are gone, continues with LOW to HIGH, and BACK wiper has INTermitent option...
Have no picture of the back of the switch but looking at the electrical, the 8-pin connector is already full in the old version, so this one must have a bigger plug for this... also a 5-pin motor for back wiper to get for Variable Intermittent...

The above being said, I used first a 2007 CRV switch... 35256-SWA-F01
I do have a 2011 FIT model H11

And it did work... Shortest is 4-5 secs middle 10 secs and longest 15 secs on idle at parking lot....
I used the pins from a spare harness, that I have from Auto AC DIY...
Above is the Q connector pin, lower is the wiper connector pin

putting the pin over the wiper plug...

Opening the Q connector

I also tried the 2012 CRV switch getting same timing 5-10-15 secs

 

So, did it work? I'm still waiting on my part.....I called the US dealer (Honda of Fife) and they STILL waiting to receive the part from the Honda distribution center..................................... its been over a week since I ordered the part

 

Did work....

 

I knew it would work,....you are welcome

I always say, follow your hunch! I knew there was hope for at least some AT fits!

 

so now that we know this works on AT fits does has anyone tried it on a base model or are people only doing this on sports

 

Probably K-man can answer that, we don't have sport Fit's here in China...

 

I think what he's saying is it'll work on AT fits that don't have paddle shifter. ie. base fits or canadian fit sports.

 

ahh thanks now ill pull off my column and check i have the connector thanks

 

What year is your fit? and which trim level? You need to check the pins on the Q connector on the back side of the fuse box.

 

its an 08 GD base model

 

Sorry, I have no info for the GD.

 

well thanks anyways maybe this weekend i will pull it out and check and thn i just gotta figure out what wiper stalk to buy

edit: do i even need to pull off the steerig column to confirm that i have that pin?

 

Check out the earlier posts in this thread to understand the mod. Essentially what you are doing is running a wire from the wiper stalk to the fuse box. You are looking to determie if the required pin is present in the fuse box (in the Q connector slot for the GE, not sure for the GD). I have no idea if the fuse box is similar between the GD and GE. Your best bet is to find a service manual for a GD to find the same pin location.

You would then also have to try to find a wiper stalk that fits a GD. I'm not sure if it looks the same as the GE stalk? So definately a bit more work than for the GE since the information is already contained in this thread.

 

ya well im gunna take it apart tomorrow if i have time and ill post if the pic match mine for others wondering
