Stupid question.................is the blind motor attached to blind body underneath the shelf

You need the bit of loom to blind. One of the breakers here might help. As you say there's a bit if loom missing. Runs from car loom plug to control box by the motor.

[scorpius92]

Sounds like you`re missing the loom to the boot connector, top plug & wiring in this pic

Haven`t you got one on your knackered blind Chris

If you get stuck I can supply you with the connector & short loom to plug into boot connector and if you look at my pic you can see what wires go where into the motor module and you can make up a 3-wire loom

Is it the loom you have has the earlier plug which doesn't fit the later plug on the facelift?

[scorpius92]

Yeah looking a that picture its the red,blue and brown cable I'm missing. It's I presume goes to the main loom near the rear strut.

Yes it does.  I would have expected this section of loom to come with the blind and shelf.  Did you remove it from the car yourself, in which case it might be worth popping back and getting the bit you need.

Easy enough to fabricate a loom if all else fails

Agreed.  But would be nice to have the original wiring if possible.

No I didn't strip the car. I was after some leather seats when I turned up to collect the guy said help yourself any thing that  fits a omega I could have so I loaded up.  The parcel shelf and blind was amongst all the other stuff
