Window switch wiring

[Beemerdan]

I am direct wiring my electric antenna to a switch because the circuit board is dead (working on a college budget). I have an extra window switch so I am planning to use it. Does anybody know what wire would be connected to each terminal on the switch to do that?

Thanks!

Look at the window connector picture on page 8500-6 here: http://wedophones.com/Manuals/BMW/19...g%20Manual.pdf

Run +12VDC to pin 3
Run Ground to pins 4 & 5
+12VDC and Ground will then alternate between pins 1 & 8 depending on wheather you push the Up or Down buttons. Hook those to the 2 leads on the antenna motor (you'll have to do this inside the antenna box as the connection points on the outside pigtail harness are different than this and rely on the circuit board to work).

Awesome! Thanks for the help.
