OPERATION
FRONT WIPER/WASHER SYSTEM
The windshield washer circuit is protected by a 15
amp Cartridge Fuse located in the IPM. The wiper
motor has permanent magnetic fields. The speeds are
determined by current flow to the appropriate set of
brushes inside the motor. The current flow is con-
trolled by the multi-function switch. The high speed/
low speed relays are located in the IPM. The speed
sensitive intermittent wiper is controlled by the Body
Control Module (BCM). The intermittent mode, with
the vehicle traveling greater than 10.4 mph, has a
range of 0.5 to 18 seconds. With the vehicle traveling
less than 10.4 mph, the time delay doubles to a
range of 1 to 36 seconds. The wiper arms will park at
the base of the windshield just above the cowl cover
after the wiper switch is turned OFF.
The windshield wiper motor and linkage is located
in an integral wiper unit at the rear of the engine
compartment. The wiper unit must be removed to
gain access to the wiper motor.
REAR WIPER/WASHER SYSTEM
When continuous rear wiper operation is required,
the BCM will provide ignition ON voltage to the rear
wiper motor. When the wiper switch is turned OFF,
the BCM provides circuit ground to operate the
motor until the wipe cycle is complete and the wiper
arm returns to the base of the rear window.
When intermittent rear wiper mode is selected, the
wiper motor will cycle every 7 seconds. The intermit-
tent delay time is also adjusted based upon vehicle
speed. With the vehicle traveling greater than 50
mph, the cycle changes to every 5 seconds.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - FRONT WIPER
SYSTEM
The windshield wiper system operates in several
modes:
²Low and high speed normal wipe
²Speed sensitive intermittent wipe
²Wipe after wash
²Park (switch OFF)
The windshield wiper circuits are continuously
monitored and controlled by the Body Control Mod-
ule (BCM). If a problem occurs in the electronic com-
ponents, wiring, switch (except integral motor park
switch) and wiper motor a Diagnostic Trouble Code
(DTC) will be stored in the BCM memory. DTC's can
be retrieved using a DRB IIItscan tool. Refer to the
proper Body Diagnostic Procedures manual for DTC
descriptions and retrieval information.The windshield wiper park switch and circuit is
monitored by the BCM. The park switch and circuit
can be tested using the Wiper System Diagnosis
table.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - FRONT
WIPER/WASHER SWITCH
(1) Remove the multi-function switch (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR/
MULTI-FUNCTION SWITCH - REMOVAL).
(2) Using an ohmmeter check resistance readings
between switch pins. Refer to the WIPER/WASHER
SWITCH RESISTANCE table.
WIPER/WASHER SWITCH RESISTANCE
SWITCH POSITION RESISTANCE BETWEEN
OFF 1 AND 2 = 23.9KV 5%
DELAY POSITION
1ST 1 AND 2 = 7.9KV 5%
2ND 1 AND 2 = 4.6KV 5%
3RD 1 AND 2 = 2.9KV 5%
4TH 1 AND 2 = 1.9KV 5%
5TH 1 AND 2 = 1.3KV 5%
LOW 1 AND 2 = 670V 5%
HIGH 1 AND2=240V 5%
WASH 1 AND 4 = 5.9KV 5%
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - FAILED PARK
SWITCH
If the wiper park switch has failed, the windshield
wipers will operate as follows:
²SWITCH OFF- Wipers stop in current location
regardless of the park signal.
²INTERMITTENT MODE- Wipers operate con-
tinuously or at low speed for one or more extra
wipes.
²LOW SPEED- Wipers operate at low speed.
²HIGH SPEED- Wipers operate at high speed.
²WIPE AFTER WASH- Wipers operate at low
speed in any mode setting. Wipers operate only while
the wash button is depressed with switch in the OFF
mode and wipers stop in mid-cycle when button is
released.
The windshield wiper park switch and circuit is
monitored by the BCM. The park switch and circuit
can be tested using the WIPER SYSTEM DIAGNO-
SIS table.

FRONT WIPER ARMS
STANDARD PROCEDURE - FRONT WIPER ARM
ALIGNMENT
(1) Verify wiper blade element condition and wiper
arm spring tension. Run wipers in low speed mode
while applying water to the windshield. Observe the
wiper blade that is chattering or skipping across the
windshield. If the wiper element is not rolling over
when the wiper direction reverses, align the wiper
arm. The extension bar portion of the wiper arm
must be twisted in the proper direction to allow the
wiper element to roll over when the direction
reverses.
(2) Place two small adjustable wrenches placed 50
mm (2 in.) apart on the wiper arm extension rod.
(3) Twist the extension rod slightly in the opposite
direction that the element is laying on the wind-
shield while holding the wrench closest to the pivot
stationary.

HEADLAMP WASHERS -
EXPORT
DESCRIPTION
The headlamp washers on this vehicle (Fig. 3)
work in conjunction with the windshield washers.
The headlamp washers are enabled with the head-
lamps ªONº and the windshield washers activated.
With the windshield washers activated the headlamp
washers will spray twice for a predetermined amount
of time.
OPERATION
The headlamp washer system utilizes a separate
high pressure pump that is attached to the wind-
shield washer reservoir. The headlamp washer pump
feeds nozzles that are mounted in the front fascia of
the vehicle. The nozzle bodies have a telescopic
action that will extend the nozzles in front of the
headlamp assembly. These nozzles spray the head-
lamps when the system is activated.
To activate the headlamp washers, turn ON the
headlamps and them press the windshield washer
control knob. This will operate the windshield wash-
ers and direct two timed high pressure sprays onto
the headlamp lens.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HEADLAMP
WASHERS - EXPORT
The headlamp washer pump pick-up is located
above the low washer fluid level sensor. First of all
check the fluid level in the reservoir.
(1) Check fuse #30 for continuity. If no continuity,
go to Step 3.
(2) If the headlamp washers do not pop up when a
headlamp wash is requested, disconnect the head-
lamp washer hose. To disconnect the headlamp
washer hose, push down on the latch at any connec-
tor with slight force and pull apart. When reattach-
ing, push till you hear a snap. With a regulated 20
psi of air pressure, apply it to the washer hose. The
headlamp washers should pop up out of the front fas-
cia. If not, check for leaks/connections in the hose.
WARNING: IF MORE THAN 20 PSI IS APPLIED TO
THE WASHER HOSE, WASHER FLUID MAY SPRAY
OUT OF THE HEADLAMP WASHER. WEAR SAFETY
GLASSES AND DO NOT HAVE AIMING DIRECTLY
TOWARD FACE.
(3) If the hose and washer spray assembly are OK,
check the washer pump for ground and 12v power
during a washer request. If defective, repair circuit
as necessary.
