Windshield Wipers and Washers
The windshield wiper linkages and motor are a
combined unit with the operating logic integrated
into the GECM. The wiper system has two wiper
arms/blades which are handed for LHD or RHD.
Wipers are twin speed with variable six speed
intermittent operation and, optionally, moisture
sensitive operation.
Wiper arms do not lock away from the glass, they
must be held away from the windshield when
cleaning the glass. A special tool (501065) is
required to remove the wiper arms from the body.
Windshield washer jets are hood mounted. Two
sizes of washer reservoir are available, one for
windshield wash only, 4.4 litres, and one for
windshield wash and headlamp power wash,
6.6 litres. The reservoir is mounted forward of the
RH front wheel.
Headlamp power wash jets extend by water
pressure and retract by spring pressure.
A spoiler is fitted to the driverÕs wiper blade for
UK and European markets only.

Interior Rear View Mirror
There are five derivatives of interior rear view
mirror.
1. Base, non-electric
2. Electrochromic
3. Electrochromic with rain sensing
4. Electrochromic with compass
5. Electrochromic with rain sensing and
compass
Electrochromic Interior Rear View Mirror -
(where fitted)
Push the switch in and the rear view mirror
darkens automatically to prevent glare from the
following vehicleÕs headlamps. The mirror clears
when the light levels return to normal. The mirror
also clears when reverse gear is selected. Where
fitted, an LED is lit when mirror dimming is active.
Push the switch again and the glare-reducing
effect of the mirror is switched off so that a clear
reflection is given.
Electrochromic Interior Rear View Mirror
with Rain Sensing - (where fitted)
The moisture sensor for the wipers is fitted to the
windshield and covered by the mirror pod.
Note:The auto headlamp sensor is not fitted to
the mirror as on the XJ8 but is fitted to the fascia
for the S-TYPE.
Ensure that the windshield in front of the mirror
pod and the autoheadlamp sensor is kept clean
since any dirt may affect the operation of these
sensors.
Electrochromic Interior Rear View Mirror
with Compass (USA market only)
The compass direction is given in a digital display
(eight compass points) in the corner of the mirror.
The brightness of the compass display dims as the
ambient light level falls. The compass must be
calibrated by the Dealer at PDI to compensate for
the difference between magnetic north and true
north in the part of the world where the car is
driven. For best results, the calibration procedure
should take place in an open area free from
overhead power lines or large metal structures.
On the underside of the mirror pod there are two
small holes. Insert a small screwdriver or other
pointed tool into the RH hole. Press the button in
