#1 S1 3.8 - wiper motor earthing point

Post by rswaffie » Wed Apr 25, 2018 7:28 am

Hi All,
I have had my DL3 motor rebuilt with all new wires etc and it looks great and a quick bench test confirms it works as good as it looks.
There is a separate earth connection that I assume had to be made at the ‘E’ screw - can someone confirm where it should be earthed to? Is it acceptable to use one of the 5-way connector bracket screws?
