Not the normal RS5 spoiler wiring query

1092 Views 9 Replies 4 Participants Last post by  krishay.baxter
Can anyone help me out with the wiring that goes from the spoiler lift motor to the loom connection plug? Had a look at the spoiler motor today with view to repairing the wiring that someone had cut before I got my hands on it. What I need to know is which wires go to which terminals in the T8 plug. I have the wiring diagram which helped out immensely when making up the loom to the spoiler, unfortunately it doesn't show the motor connection.

This is what I am trying to wire up correctly;

Automotive tire Bumper Automotive exterior Wood Electrical wiring


Would like a picture of the plug attached to the wires on someones RS5 spoiler if possible please.

Hi if you're good with electronics as well as reading wiring diagrams then this might help:

Already seen that and have used that wiring diagram to make up my own loom. It doesn't show the connections from the actual motor to the plug that connects to the loom.

I think I might have worked it out though by zooming in on images from Google. Just want to double check. Failing that I might see if I can buy the short loom from Audi.

Thanks for your reply though. Will be interesting to see who else offers some help.

Well that doesn't surprise me really
What doesn’t surprise you?

You may be able to buy a loom or part loom from one of our members @Baas J.
It's not the loom I need as I have made up my own from the wiring diagram. It's the wires that come from the motor that I need to know where they connect. I have found a couple of pictures that partly show where they connect into the plug. Just need some help or just a clear photo of the wires going into the plug.
Looks like I'm on my own with this one as no one seems to know or are able to offer help.

I've even asked a couple of sellers on eBay who had spoilers listed if they could send me a clearer picture of the plug showing the wires but have got no response. I guess they are just too busy to help out a little.
Crack on Simon, this is the part where you enlighten us!

Would like to see the spoiler working tbf, but I've no idea unfortunately!

It's all in retrofitting where sometimes you come across questions wherell you'll have to discover it yourself.
