Wiper motor wiring

[stuart66]

Hi, My wife has a 2001 megane coupe with a burned out front wiper motor.
I purchased a replacement online but the wiring connections are totally different.
The old one has a black 4 wire terminal but the replacement has a grey terminal with 5 wires.
My mechanic isn't sure how to wire the new unit in.
Ant ideas guys?

Send it back and get the right part would be my initial reaction. Either that or spend a lot of time figuring out the electronics.

We need to know where the 'Park' wire goes.....If we get it wrong then we're knackered.
Spoke to an electrical mechanic, but he's not sure either.
But the place that sold it to me insist that it can be done.

Jesus H Christ. Do you have a wiring diagram for the new unit or a part number or something I can look at? I wouldn't mess with it - you could break something expensive. I'll have a look at any info you can find, but my personal preference would be, as I have already said, to get the correct replacement part - from a scrapyard if necessary..
