EllTrim Actuator wiring

[jamescf]

Received a new actuator from Elltrim to replace the one that's not working, it just makes a noiseand full of salt water.
The wires are all the same colour so how do you tell what connects to what at the junction block in the engine bay?

Should be numbers printed along the wire.

There are online diagrams on how to connect new units to old wiring .Quick Google produces several
Seem to remember that one unit I fitted had different colour wires to the original.

One I fitted recently had numbers on the wires, super tiny bloody numbers!
