along the left roof side rail to the rear of the vehicle.
At the rear of the vehicle, the headliner hose is
routed above the headliner and along the upper lift-
gate opening panel toward the right side of the vehi-
cle. The headliner hose then passes through a hole
with a rubber grommet in the upper liftgate opening
panel and through another hole with a rubber grom-
met into the upper inner liftgate panel to the rear
washer nozzle.
Washer hose is available for service only as roll
stock, which must then be cut to length. The head-
liner washer hose is integral to the headliner unit
and, if faulty or damaged, the headliner unit must be
replaced. The molded plastic washer hose fittings
cannot be repaired. If these fittings are faulty or
damaged, they must be replaced.
OPERATION
Washer fluid in the washer reservoir is pressurized
and fed by the rear washer pump/motor through the
rear washer system plumbing and fittings to the rear
washer nozzle on the liftgate outer panel above the
liftgate glass. Whenever routing the washer hose or a
wire harness containing a washer hose, it must be
routed away from hot, sharp, or moving parts; and,
sharp bends that might pinch the hose must be
avoided.
REAR WASHER NOZZLE
DESCRIPTION
The rear washer nozzle is a fluidic type unit that
includes an integral check valve (Fig. 3). The nozzle
is constructed of molded plastic and has a rubber
seal and integral snap features on the back of it. The
nozzle is secured by a snap fit in a dedicated mount-
ing hole in the liftgate outer panel above the liftgate
flip-up glass. Within the rear nozzle body, a small
check ball is held against an integral valve seat at
the inlet end of the nozzle by a small coiled spring.
The rear washer nozzle and check valve unit cannot
be adjusted or repaired. If faulty or damaged, the
entire nozzle and check valve unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The rear washer nozzle is designed to dispense
washer fluid into the wiper pattern area on the out-
side of the liftgate glass. Pressurized washer fluid is
fed to the nozzle from the washer reservoir by the
rear washer pump/motor through a single hose,
which is attached to a barbed nipple on the back of
the rear washer nozzle. The rear washer nozzle
incorporates a fluidic design, which causes the nozzle
to emit the pressurized washer fluid as an oscillating
stream to more effectively cover a larger area of the
glass area to be cleaned. The integral rear nozzle
check valve prevents washer fluid from draining out
of the rear washer supply hoses back to the washer
reservoir. This drain-back would result in a lengthy
delay from when the rear washer switch is actuated
until washer fluid was dispensed through the rear
washer nozzle, because the rear washer pump would
have to refill the rear washer plumbing from the res-
ervoir to the nozzle. The check valve also prevents
washer fluid from siphoning through the rear washer
nozzle after the rear washer system is turned Off.
When the rear washer pump pressurizes and pumps
washer fluid from the reservoir through the rear
washer plumbing, the fluid pressure overrides the
spring pressure applied to the check ball within the
valve and unseats the check ball, allowing washer
fluid to flow to the rear washer nozzle. When the
rear washer pump stops operating, spring pressure
seats the check ball in the valve and fluid flow in
either direction within the rear washer plumbing is
prevented.
REMOVAL
The check valve for the rear washer nozzle is inte-
gral to the nozzle.
(1) Using a trim stick or another suitable wide
flat-bladed tool, gently pry at the sides of the rear
washer nozzle to release the snap features that
secure it in the mounting hole of the liftgate outer
panel.

REAR WASHER PUMP/MOTOR
DESCRIPTION
The rear washer pump/motor unit is located on the
outboard side and near the rear of the washer reser-
voir, between the left front inner and outer fender
panels (Fig. 5). A small permanently lubricated and
sealed electric motor is coupled to the rotor-type
washer pump. A seal flange with a large barbed inlet
nipple on the pump housing passes through a rubber
grommet seal installed in one of two dedicatedmounting holes near the bottom of the washer reser-
voir. The rear washer pump/motor unit is always
mounted in the higher pump mounting hole of the
reservoir. A smaller barbed outlet nipple on the pump
housing connects the unit to the rear washer hose.
The washer pump/motor unit is retained on the res-
ervoir by the interference fit between the barbed
pump inlet nipple and the grommet seal, which is a
light press fit. An integral electrical connector recep-
tacle is located on the top of the motor housing. The
rear washer pump/motor unit cannot be repaired. If
faulty or damaged, the entire washer pump/motor
unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The rear washer pump/motor unit is connected to
the vehicle electrical system through a single take
out and two-cavity connector of the left headlamp
and dash wire harness. The washer pump/motor is
grounded at all times through a take out of the left
headlamp and dash wire harness with a single eyelet
terminal connector that is secured under a ground
screw to the top of the left inner fender shield in the
engine compartment. The rear washer pump/motor
receives battery current on a fused ignition switch
output (run-acc) circuit through the closed contacts of
the momentary rear washer switch within the right
multi-function switch only when the switch control
stalk is pushed towards the instrument panel.
Washer fluid is gravity-fed from the washer reservoir
to the inlet side of the washer pump. When the pump
motor is energized, the rotor-type pump pressurizes

REAR WIPER ARM
DESCRIPTION
The rear wiper arm is the rigid member located
between the rear wiper motor output shaft that pro-
trudes from the outer liftgate panel near the base of
the liftgate glass opening and the rear wiper blade
(Fig. 7). This wiper arm features an over-center

secured loosely to and pivots on the wiper arm hinge
pin to conceal the wiper arm retaining nut. The wide
end of a tapered, stamped steel channel is secured
with a hinge pin to the pivot end of the wiper arm.
One end of a long, rigid, stamped steel strap, with a
small hole near its pivot end, is riveted and crimped
within the narrow end of the stamped steel channel.
The tip of the wiper blade end of this strap is bent
back under itself to form a small hook. Concealed
within the stamped steel channel, one end of a long
spring is engaged with a wire hook on the underside
of the die cast pivot end, while the other end of the
spring is hooked through the small hole in the steel
strap. A molded plastic wiper arm support is snapped
onto the wiper arm strap where it exits the channel.
The entire wiper arm has a satin black finish applied
to all of its visible surfaces.
A wiper arm cannot be adjusted or repaired. If
damaged or faulty, the entire wiper arm unit must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The rear wiper arm is designed to mechanically
transmit the motion from the rear wiper motor out-
put shaft to the rear wiper blade. The wiper arm
must be properly indexed to the motor output shaft
in order to maintain the proper wiper blade travel on
the glass. The wiper arm support is designed to lift
and support the rear wiper arm and blade off of the
glass when the rear wiper blade is parked. This sup-
port and the park ramp on the liftgate outer panel
below the glass also provide an alignment reference
to ensure accurate rear wiper arm and blade instal-
lation. The hole with internal serrations in the wiper
arm pivot end interlocks with the serrations on the
outer circumference of the motor output shaft, allow-
ing positive engagement and finite adjustment of this
connection. A hex nut secures the wiper arm pivot
end to the threads on the motor output shaft and the
pivot cover hinges and snaps over this connection for
a neat appearance. The spring-loaded wiper arm
hinge controls the down-force applied through the tip
of the wiper arm to the wiper blade on the glass. The
hook formation on the tip of the wiper arm provides
a cradle for securing and latching the wiper blade
pivot block to the wiper arm.

REAR WIPER MODULE
DESCRIPTION
The rear wiper module is concealed within the lift-
gate, below the liftgate glass and behind the liftgate
trim panel (Fig. 12). The end of the motor output
shaft that protrudes through the liftgate outer panel
to drive the rear wiper arm and blade is the only vis-
ible component of the rear wiper module. A rubber
gasket, a bezel, and a nut seal and secure the motor
output shaft to the liftgate outer panel. A molded
plastic nut cover snaps onto the bezel to conceal the

motor that is secured with screws to the wiper motor
and to the liftgate inner panel.
²Electronic Controls- The rear wiper module
electronic controls include the rear wiper system
electronic logic and rear wiper motor electronic con-
trols. The electronic controls for the motor include an
electronic speed control that speeds the wiper blade
near the center of the glass, but slows the wiper
blade during directional reversals at each end of the
wipe pattern and during wiper blade off-the-glass
parking for quieter operation.
²Motor- The permanent magnet rear wiper
motor is secured with screws to the rear wiper mod-
ule bracket. The wiper motor includes an integral
transmission, and the motor output shaft.
The rear wiper module cannot be adjusted or
repaired. If any component of the module is faulty or
damaged, the entire rear wiper module unit must be
replaced. The motor output shaft gasket, bezel, nut,
and nut cover are available for service replacement.
OPERATION
The rear wiper module receives non-switched bat-
tery current through a fuse in the Junction Block
(JB) and is grounded at all times. The rear wiper
module operation is controlled by the vehicle operator
through battery current signal inputs received by the
rear wiper module electronic controls from the right
multi-function switch on the steering column. The
module also receives an external control input from
the liftgate flip-up glass ajar switch circuit. The rear
wiper module electronic control logic uses these
inputs, its internal inputs, and its programming to
provide continuous wipe, delay wipe, wipe-after-wash
and off-the-glass wiper blade parking. The wiper
blade cycling is controlled by the rear wiper module
electronic controls, which control current flow to the
wiper motor brushes. The wiper motor transmission
converts the rotary output of the wiper motor to the
back and forth wiping motion of the rear wiper arm
and blade on the liftgate glass.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.

DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION - HOW TO USE WIRING
DIAGRAMS
DaimlerChrysler Corporation wiring diagrams are
designed to provide information regarding the vehi-
cles wiring content. In order to effectively use the
wiring diagrams to diagnose and repair
DaimlerChrysler Corporation vehicles, it is important
to understand all of their features and characteris-
tics.
Diagrams are arranged such that the power (B+)
side of the circuit is placed near the top of the page,
and the ground (B-) side of the circuit is placed near
the bottom of the page (Fig. 1).
All switches, components, and modules are shown
in the at rest position with the doors closed and the
key removed from the ignition (Fig. 2).Components are shown two ways. A solid line
around a component indicates that the component is
complete. A dashed line around the component indi-
cates that the component is being shown is not com-
plete. Incomplete components have a reference
number to indicate the page where the component is
shown complete.
It is important to realize that no attempt is made
on the diagrams to represent components and wiring
as they appear on the vehicle. For example, a short
piece of wire is treated the same as a long one. In
addition, switches and other components are shown
as simply as possible, with regard to function only.
SYMBOLS
International symbols are used throughout the wir-
ing diagrams. These symbols are consistent with
those being used around the world (Fig. 3).

DESCRIPTION - SECTION IDENTIFICATION AND
INFORMATION
The wiring diagrams are grouped into individual
sections. If a component is most likely found in a par-
ticular group, it will be shown complete (all wires,
connectors, and pins) within that group. For exam-
ple, the Auto Shutdown Relay is most likely to be
found in Group 30, so it is shown there complete. It
can, however, be shown partially in another group if
it contains some associated wiring.
Splice diagrams in Section 8W-70 show the entire
splice and provide references to other sections the
splices serves. Section 8W-70 only contains splice dia-
grams that are not shown in their entirety some-
where else in the wiring diagrams.
Section 8W-80 shows each connector and the cir-
cuits involved with that connector. The connectors
are identified using the name/number on the dia-
gram pages.
