REAR WIPER AND WASHER SYSTEM
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
The BCM controls rear wiper motor operation by switching direction of current flow between the two rear wiper
motor output circuits.
Power is supplied to output circuit 1 for forward operation (counterclockwise sweep),

through BCM terminal 55

to rear wiper motor terminal 4.
Ground is supplied

to rear wiper motor terminal 6

through BCM terminal 54

through BCM terminal 67

through grounds M57, M61 and M79.
With output circuit 1 power and ground supplied, the rear wiper motor operates in a counterclockwise sweep
direction until auto stop switch 1 closes (full sweep position). Auto stop switch 1 supplies ground

to BCM terminal 44

through rear wiper motor terminal 2

through rear wiper motor terminal 5

through grounds B117 and B132.
When the BCM receives this ground signal it turns off output circuit 1 and turns on output circuit 2.
Power is supplied to output circuit 2 for reverse operation (clockwise sweep),

through BCM terminal 54

to rear wiper motor terminal 6.
Ground is supplied

to rear wiper motor terminal 4

through BCM terminal 55

through BCM terminal 67

through grounds M57, M61 and M79.
With output circuit 2 power and ground supplied the rear wiper motor operates in a clockwise sweep direction
until auto stop switch 2 closes (full sweep position). Auto stop switch 2 supplies ground

to BCM terminal 26

through rear wiper motor terminal 1

through rear wiper motor terminal 3

through grounds B117 and B132.
When the BCM receives this ground signal it turns off output circuit 2 and starts the timing function of 7 sec-
onds. After approximately 7 seconds the BCM turns on output circuit 1. This process repeats until the rear
wiper switch or ignition switch is turned off.
AUTO STOP OPERATION
When the rear wiper switch is turned off, the BCM will continue the cycle of output circuit 1 or output circuit 2
until auto stop switch 1 and auto stop switch 2 are both in the closed position. When the BCM receives ground
signals from auto stop switch 1 and auto stop switch 2 simultaneously, output circuit 1 and output circuit 2 are
both turned off.
REAR WASHER OPERATION
When the ignition switch is in the ON or START position, and the front and rear washer switches are OFF, the
front and rear washer motor is supplied power

through 10A fuse (No. 9, located in the fuse block J/B)

through combination switch (wiper switch) terminal 14

through combination switch (wiper switch) terminal 11

to front and rear washer motor terminal 2, and

through combination switch (wiper switch) terminal 13

to front and rear washer motor terminal 1.
When the rear wiper switch is in rear washer position, the BCM detects a rear washer signal by BCM wiper
switch reading function. Combination switch ground is supplied

to front and rear washer motor terminal 1

through combination switch (wiper switch) terminal 13

through combination switch (wiper switch) terminal 12

through grounds M57, M61 and M79.
With ground supplied, the front and rear washer motor is operated in the rear direction.
When the BCM detects that the rear washer motor has operated for 0.4 seconds or longer, BCM operates the
rear wiper motor.
When the BCM detects that the rear washer switch is in OFF, the rear wiper motor cycles approximately 3
times and then stops.
If the rear washer is operated with the rear wiper switch in the INT position, normal rear wiper operation will
take over. Once the rear washer switch is released the rear wiper will return to INT operation.
