FRONT 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 13
• to front and rear washer motor terminal 1, and
• through combination switch (wiper switch) terminal 11
• to front and rear washer motor terminal 2.
When the front wiper switch is in the front washer position, the BCM detects a front washer signal request
through the combination switch (wiper switch) reading function.
Combination switch ground is supplied
• to front and rear washer motor terminal 2
• through combination switch (wiper switch) terminal 11
• 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 front direction.
When the BCM detects that front washer motor has operated for 0.4 seconds or longer, the BCM uses CAN
communication and sends a wiper request signal to the IPDM E/R for low speed operation of wipers.
When the BCM detects that the washer switch is OFF, low speed operation cycles approximately 3 times and
then stops.
MIST OPERATION
When the wiper switch is temporarily placed in the mist position, wiper low speed operation cycles once and
then stops. For additional information about wiper operation under this condition, refer to "LOW SPEED
WIPER OPERATION".
If the switch is held in the mist position, low speed operation continues.
FAIL-SAFE FUNCTION
The BCM includes fail-safe function to prevent malfunction of electrical components controlled by CAN com-
munications if a malfunction in CAN communications occurs.
The BCM uses CAN communications to stop output of electrical components it controls.
Until the ignition switch is turned off, the front wiper system remains in same status as just before fail-safe con-
trol was initiated. (If wiper was in low speed operation just before fail-safe, it continues low speed operation
until ignition switch is turned OFF.)
When fail-safe status is initiated, the BCM remains in standby until normal signals are received.
When normal signals are received, fail-safe status is canceled.
COMBINATION SWITCH READING FUNCTION

Front Wipers Operate For 10 Seconds, Stop For 20 Seconds, And After Repeating This Operation
Five Times, They Become Inoperative
CAUTION:
• When auto stop signal has not varied for 10 seconds or longer while IPDM E/R is operating front wip-
ers, IPDM E/R considers front wipers locked and stops wiper output, which causes this symptom.
• This status can be checked by using IPDM E/R "DATA MONITOR". Under this condition, "WIP PROT"
reads "BLOCK".
1.CHECK IPDM E/R TO FRONT WIPER MOTOR

Select "IPDM E/R" with CONSULT-II. With data monitor, confirm that
"WIP AUTO STOP" changes from "ACT P" to "STOP P" according to
wiper operation.
Without CONSULT-II

2.IPDM E/R TO FRONT WIPER MOTOR AUTO STOP CIRCUIT INSPECTION
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect IPDM E/R connector and front wiper motor connector.
3. Check continuity between IPDM E/R harness connector terminal
and front wiper motor harness connector terminal.
