Default Washer bottle woes

Hi All,

Ive got a problem with my windscreen washer, the motor is seized, so I need a new one...no problem there.....I hope,

But

The electrical plug that clips into the top of it is also mankey!, it has three cables into it, now the brown one is obvisously the earth, but which of the other two is the feed from the washer switch stalk?

Does anyone know where I can get a new plug from and rewire to it accordingly, I cnt reuse the old plug as it is knackered.

I could plug the one hole in the bottle and fit a normal (non indicating low water) type motor in its place, with a two cable supply, but agai I need to know which is the feed from the stalks.

Any help is appriciated, spent loads of time on it this weekend.
Started on Saturday morning, removed the bumper, front wings did other repairs, repainted behind the mud guards in antichip paint, fitted two new wings and bumper (S2 type) and reset the bumper to the correct clearances (which it wasnt before), and it was ready to rock and roll by five in the after noon, and that included cutting the new paint back too, yesterday took it on a good run to Oxford and back......minus the damned windscreen washer though!

Cheers

Ringo
