Windscreen on my K1100LT only works sometimes. Traced problem back to limiting micro switch mounted on windscreen motor. Has anyone fixed or replaced this switch. Parts list show it as part of motor assembly - not falling for that BMW trick.

Also does anyone have a wiring diagram for the windscreen electrics?

Hate to tell you but the micro isn't available from bmw as a separate part. You could maybe find one from an electronics supplier.

Thanks guys - I figured that the micro switch would be hard to find - might just pull it out and see if I can make a universal fit. Thanks also for the wiring diagrams - exactly what I needed.

If your microswitch is unrepairable, search for a used sunroof motor from a BMW E34 sedan or a E32.

See if any of these http://cpc.farnell.com/jsp/search/results.jsp?N=411+521+1002729&isGoback=false&isRedirect=true look like yours?
Most of those shown are electronics industry standard, tis just a case of finding a local supplier.
