Allows for variable intermittent wipers - 12.5 seconds at the slowest, ranging up to 3.9 seconds on the quickest.

Anyone interested in a tutorial? If so, ill sort it out when i have renewed my membership.

No need to renew. Tutorial pics are hosted by FAQ. I have the keys to the FAQ account so u2u the tutorial to me and I'll post it for you

I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

Tutorial on how to fit Omega variable speed wiper stalk

Remove the cowling from around the steering column (3 screws underneath and 2 behind the steering wheel) and remove the corsa wiper stalk.


Looking at the back of the wiper stalk, you need to locate the positive wire.

To do this, pop the wiper stalk onto the intermittent wiper setting and turn the ignition on.


this wire will be the yellow/black one - far left in the below picture



Then get the Omega wiper stalk. There are various ones of these.
Omega saloon - front wipe, no rear wipe


Omega estate - front wipe, rear wipe

Some Omega's (V6 i think) come with the computer screens which can be set from the wiper stalk


The wiper stalk has an additional plug on it with wires going into it and out the other side. From this you need the yellow/black and black/white wires (the V6 one has more wires on it than the one i used, but locating the y/b and b/w wires the same will be fine)

Strip these two wires down so they can be soldered in

The positive wire in the Corsa plug (yellow/black wire located above) needs to be cut to allow the omega wires to be soldered in, making a circuit.


Tidy it all up

Refit it



Next, you also need the relay out of the Omega.
This is located in the fuse box under the bonnet on the Omega, its bright yellow (90494187)
Corsa wiper relay location

Corsa relay (black) Omega relay (yellow)


Omega relay in place


Job done. This now allows for the intermittent wipers to be changed to run from intervals of 3.9 seconds to 12.5 seconds.

Good mod this bud.
Fitted mine today, Only took 10 mins, although the relay I got from the Omega was actually grey.
The added bonus of this mod is the fact it was free for me

Oh right, didnt know it was coloured differently, i asked on the omega forum and they told me yellow. Never mind


Never thought about the cruise control aspect of it Now that would be uber cool Might have to look into that!!
