DESCRIPTION
The Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC) and
Compass Temperature (CT) computer are modules
located in the overhead console. Vehicles are
equipped with either the CMTC or the CT computers
not both. The CMTC is different in the fact that it is
equipped with the mini-trip feature. The CMTC, CT
consists of a electronic control module with a vacuum
fluorescent display (VFD) and function switches. The
CMTC, CT consists of a electronic module that dis-
plays compass, trip computer (CMTC only), and tem-
perature features. Actuating the STEP push button
(CMTC only) will cause the CMTC to change mode of
operation when ignition is ON. Actuating the STEP
push button (CMTC only) will cause the CMTC to
change mode of operation when ignition is ON.
Example:
²Average miles per gallon (ECO)
²Distance to empty (DTE)
²Instant miles per gallon (ECO)
²Trip odometer (ODO)
²Elapsed time (ET)
²Off
Actuating the C/T push button will cause the
CMTC, CT to change to Compass/Temperature dis-
play.
OPERATION
The Compass Mini-Trip Computer (CMTC), Com-
pass Temperature (CT) module in the overhead con-
sole has buttons used to select various functions. The
CMTC, CT selector buttons will not operate until the
ignition is in the RUN position.
When the ignition switch is first turned to the
RUN position the CMTC, CT display;
²Blanks momentarily
²All segments of the VFD will light for one sec-
ond
²Blanks momentarily
²Returns to the last mode setting selected before
the ignition was last switched OFF.

WIPERS/WASHERS
DESCRIPTION
FRONT WIPER/WASHER SYSTEM
The windshield wipers can be operated with the
windshield wiper switch when the ignition switch is
in the RUN or ACCESSORY positions. The wind-
shield wiper system is protected by a 30 amp fuse (9)
located in the Power Distribution Center (PDC) part
of the Integrated Power Module (IPM) in the engine
compartment. The wiper/washer switch is integral to
the multi-function switch. It is a resistive MUX
switch that sends inputs to the BCM to operate the
wiper/washer system.
REAR WIPER/WASHER SYSTEM
The rear windshield wiper and washers can be
operated when the ignition switch is in the RUN
position.
If equipped with Manual Temperature Controls
(MTC), the rear wiper/washer switch is integral to
the HVAC control unit. It replaces what was formerly
the ON/OFF switch. If equipped with Automatic Tem-
perature Controls (ATC), the rear wiper/washer
switch is located on the accessory switch panel in the
center stack of the instrument panel.
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
RSWIPERS/WASHERS8R-1

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 rear wiper operation is required, the BCM
will provide ignition ON voltage to the rear wiper
motor (Export and ATC equipped vehicles only).
When the wiper switch is turned OFF, the BCM pro-
vides circuit ground to operate the motor until the
wipe cycle is complete and the wiper arm returns to
the base of the rear window.
Switch only offers an intermittent rear wiper
mode. The wiper motor will cycle every 7 seconds.
The intermittent delay time is also adjusted based
upon vehicle speed. With the vehicle traveling
greater than 50 mph, the cycle changes to every 5
seconds.
When rear washer is requested by depressing and
holding down the switch, the BCM then provides a
ground for the rear washer motor. Until the switch is
released, the motor will be in a continuous wipe
mode, then return to an intermittent wipe mode.
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

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.

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.
