Step 15Main Wiring Harness On/Off Switch and Battery mounting

Main Wiring Harness On/Off Switch and Battery mounting
Using a short section of 1 by 1 by 1/16 thick aluminum angle stock mount the on/off switch to the left hand side of the rear movable platform using ½” long #4 sheet metal screws. See photo.

Using two strips of adhesive backed Velcro mount the battery to the left hand front corner of the movable platform see photo.

See Circuit diagram for wiring details. Use 18 gauge stranded wire for power lines and 26-24 gauge solid core for most digital lines.

Telephone cable was used for IR Receiver and Opto sensor lines. These lines were secured using zip-ties stapled to moveable platform and main upright.

For quick disconnects, I used motorcycle style bullet nose connectors, but 3/16 spade quick-disconnects are more readily available at most hardware stores. Female 3/16 spade connectors work for making connections to the wiper motor. See photo for wiper motor pinouts.
