Default 6 speed wiper conversion - esc van


Problems, problems, problems.
Attempted to upgrade to 6 speed intermittent wiper conversion on Esc Van 75. MK6/7 W reg. Ran into difficulty!
Doing a car is no problem, thought van would be the same.
Replaced wiper stalk for 6 speeder jobbie without rear wash, went to change relay and found that van relay is different to a car one. Well carried on and replaced original 6 pin relay for a 5 pin variable intermitent one hoping it would work........... But no. Normal wiper mode works but no intermitant.
Does anybody know of a relay that i may need??
Ford were no help as looked at all relays possible and Ford Technical help were a waste of time as they said i shouldnt be modifying the original!!!!
Sombody out there must of done this conversion before.

Yer, the fuse box is different from car varieties, but cant understand why there is a seven pin slot for the relayin the fuse box if Ford never made a 7 pin Relay!!
I think I have been beaten on this one.
