nal 5 and the negative (−) lead to terminal 6, check that
the meter needle indicates 0 volts.
(c) Connect the positive (+) lead from the voltmeter to termi-
nal 4 and the negative (−) lead to terminal 6, check that
the meter needle indicates battery positive voltage.
If operation is not as specified, replace the relay.
7. INSPECT REAR WIPER RELAY INTERMITTENT OP-
ERATION
(a) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
5 and the negative (−) lead to terminal 2 more than 2 se-
conds.

(c) After disconnecting the positive (+) lead from terminal 5
connect it to terminal 3, and than, check that the meter
needle rises from 0 volts to battery positive voltage within
9 to 15 seconds.
If operation is not as specified, replace the relay.
8. INSPECT FRONT WIPER MOTOR OPERATION
(a) Inspect the motor operation at low speed.
Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
3 and the negative (−) lead from the battery to terminal 1,
check that the motor operates at low speed.
If operation is not as specified, replace the motor.
(b) Inspect the motor operation at high speed.
Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
2 and the negative (−) lead from the battery to terminal 1,
check that the motor operates at high speed.
If operation is not as specified, replace the motor.
(c) Inspect the motor operation when stopping it.
(1) Operate the motor at low speed and stop the motor
operation anywhere except at the stop position by
disconnecting the positive (+) lead from terminal 3.
(2) Connect terminals 3 and 5.
(3) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to ter-
minal 6 and negative (−) lead from the battery termi-
nal 1, check that the motor stops running at the stop
position after the motor operates again.
If operation is not as specified, replace the motor.

9. INSPECT REAR WIPER MOTOR OPERATION
(a) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
4 and the negative (−) lead to the motor body, check that
the motor operates.
If operation is not as specified, replace the motor.
(b) Operate the motor and stop the motor operation any-
where except at the stop position by disconnecting the
positive (+) lead from terminal 4.
(c) Connect terminals 2 and 4.
(d) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
1 and the negative (−) lead to the motor body, check that
the motor stops running at the stop position after the mo-
tor operates again.
If operation is not as specified, replace the motor.
10. INSPECT WASHER MOTOR OPERATION
Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 2 and
the negative (−) lead to terminal 1, check that the motor oper-
ates.
NOTICE:
These tests must be performed quickly (within 20 seconds)
to prevent the coil from burning out.
If operation is not as specified, replace the motor.

IF NECESSARY,REPAIR DEFOGGER WIRE
(a) Clean the broken wire tips with grease, wax and silicone
remover.
(b) Place the masking tape along both sides of the wire to be
repaired.
(c) Thoroughly mix the repair agent (Dupont paste No.
4817).
(d) Using a fine tip brush, apply a small amount to the wire.
(e) After a few minutes, remove the masking tape.
(f) Do not repair the defogger wire for at least 24 hours.

3. INSPECT DEFOGGER WIRE
NOTICE:
When cleaning the glass, use a soft, dry cloth, and
wipe the glass in the direction of the wire. Take care
not to damage the wires.
Do not use detergents or glass cleaners with abrasive
ingredients.
When measuring voltage, wind a piece of tin foil
around the top of the negative probe and press the foil
against the wire with your finger, as shown.
(a) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(b) Turn the defogger switch ON.
(c) Inspect the voltage at the center of each heat wire, as
shown in the table below.
VoltageCriteria
Approx. 5VOkay (No break in wire)
Approx. 10V or 0VBroken wire
HINT:
If there is approximately 10 V, the wire is broken between the
center of the wire and the positive (+) end. If there is no voltage,
the wire is broken between the center of the wire and ground.

(d) Place the voltmeter positive (+) lead against the defogger
positive (+) terminal.
(e) Place the voltmeter negative (−) lead with the foil strip
against the heat wire at the positive (+) terminal end and
slide it toward the negative (−) terminal end.
(f) The point where the voltmeter deflects from zero to sever-
al V is the place where the heat wire is broken.
HINT:
If the heat wire is not broken, the voltmeter indicates 0 V at the
positive (+) end of the heat wire but gradually increases to about
12 V as the meter probe moves to the other end.
