FRONT WIPERS/WASHERS
GENERAL
Two-speed electric windshield wipers and electric
washers are standard equipment. An optional inter-
mittent wiper system provides a pause between wipe
cycles for use during conditions of very light precipi-
tation.
The windshield wipers can be operated with the
windshield wiper switch only when the ignition
switch is in the ON or ACCESSORY position. A cir-
cuit breaker located in the fuse block protects the cir-
cuitry of the wiper system.
WIPERS
The standard windshield wiper circuit contains
three components; wiper/washer switch, motor, and
front washer pump. Both standard and intermittent
circuits are the same, except that the intermittent
circuit requires a module and delay resistance in the
wiper switch. Both circuits receive battery feed from,
and are protected by a 5.5 amp circuit breaker.
In the standard wiper circuit, the switch connects
the motor directly to battery feed for low and high
speed operation. In the intermittent circuit, the
switch supplies battery feed to the intermittent wiper
module, which then supplies the motor. In the delay
position, the module is connected with the variable
resistor in the wiper switch. The value of the resis-tance is used by the module to charge a capacitor,
which triggers the amount of delay between wipes.
The wiper motor has an arrangement of brushes
providing the two wiper speeds. When the wipers are
turned off, the park switch maintains current to the
motor until the wipers reach the park position on the
windshield.
The park arm in the motor assembly is connected
to the park switch and is driven by the motor. When
the wiper switch is turned off, current flows through
the contact and the module to the motor until the
wipers reach the park position.
CAUTION: The wiper arms and blades must not be
moved manually from side to side or damage may
result.
WASHERS
With the washer switch ON, current flows through
the washer pump to ground. The front washer pump
runs as long as the driver holds the switch ON. On
standard wipers, the washer switch automatically
moves the wiper switch to LO when the washer is
turned on. On intermittent wipers, the wiper module
runs the wiper motor on LO. Turning the switch to
OFF stops the wipers.
If the washer knob is depressed while the wiper
switch is in the OFF position, the wiper control will
operate for approximately 3 wipes and automatically
turn OFF.

FRONT WIPERS/WASHERS GENERAL
INFORMATION
The non-intermittent windshield wiper circuit con-
tains three components; control switch, motor and
washer pump. The intermittent circuit contains the
same components and a wiper module that provides
the delay function. Both circuits receive battery feed
from and are protected by a 5.3 amp circuit breaker.
In the non-intermittent wiper circuit, the switch
connects the motor directly to ignition feed for low
and high speed operation. In the intermittent circuit,
the switch supplies ignition feed to the delay module,
which then supplies the motor. In the delay position,
the module is connected with the variable resistor in
the wiper switch. The value of the resistance is used
by the solid state module to charge a capacitor,
which triggers the amount of delay between wipes.
The wiper motor has an arrangement of brushes
providing the two wiper speeds. When the wipers are
turned off, the park switch maintains current to the
motor until the wipers reach the park position on the
windshield.
The washer pump receives ignition feed either di-
rectly from the wiper switch or from the intermittent
module. In either case the electric motor will drive
the washer pump.
The wiper motor is mounted on the lower left cor-
ner of the windshield.
FRONT WIPER BLADE REPLACEMENT
Rotate the wiper blade release (Fig. 1) clockwise.
This will release the wiper blade from the pivot pin.
CAUTION: Take care to ensure that the wiper arm
does not strike the windshield after the wiper blade
has been removed.
To install, place the blade assembly on the wiper
arm and snap the blade assembly into position.
FRONT WIPER ARM REPLACEMENT
(1) Pull the wiper arm forward.
(2) Insert an ice pick type tool into the hole (Fig.
