    e36 switch retrofit

    this retro fit is getting rediculous. I have two white base switches for my front windows and they work fine.

    For the rear windows I had to go with the blue base switches.

    Here's the problem: the rear e30 harness' are a little different. They have a different colored wires coming out of the base, but the socket/pin numbers are the same as the front so i didnt think it would be an issue. I used this to wire them up:

    e36 e30 wire F. e30 wire R. e30 socket
    PIN 1 = BROWN 1 = brown 4
    PIN 3 = PURPLE = black/yel 8
    PIN 4 = BLACK = blue/gre 1
    PIN 5 = GREEN / GRAY = green/gra 3
    PIN 6 = BROWN 2= brown 5


    All that happens is that I blow a fuse. I have tried switchin the browns as well. Any help here? Thanks
