and
reflector assemblies
on

current
production vehicles
are
mounted
on the

side
of
the front fender and
on the
side
of
the
rear

reflex reflectors mounted on the side of the hood and
on
the
side
of
the
rear
quarter panel. determine
if
dash wiper switch or wiring
is at
fault,
disconnect wiring harness from wiper motor
and

try
operating wiper independently
of
dash switch.
If
still
inoperative
see
procedure under
Par.
H-145.
b. Wiper
will
not
shut
off
— Determine
if
wiper
has both
low
and high speeds, slow speed only,
or

high speed only.
It is
important that
the
wiper
operates
at low
speed during parking cycle.
Dis­
connect wiring harness from wiper motor
and try

operating wiper independently
of
dash switch.
If

wiper
shuts
off
correctly with
crank
arm
in
park
position and wiper has both speeds, check
the
lead

between
terminal
and
dash switch ground
and

check
for
defective dash switch.
If
wiper shuts
off

correctly,
but has
high speed only, check lead
be­

tween wiper terminal and dash switch
for an
open

circuit
and check
for
defective dash switch.
If
still

inoperative,
see
Par. H-145.
c. Wiper

H-141.
Windshield Wiper System

Early
production vehicles equipped with
the
Dauntless V-6
engine
have
two
single speed wind­
shield wiper motors mounted above
the
windshield inside
the
vehicle. The wiper motors
are
operated

and
controlled
by a
switch located
on the
instru­
ment panel.

Current
production vehicles with stationary wind­
shield have
a
two-speed
electric windshield wiper motor mounted below
the
windshield outside
the

vehicle on the driver's side. The wiper motor switch is located
on the
instrument panel
to the
left
of

the steering column.

H-142.
Two-Speed Wiper Motor

The
two-speed
electric wiper motor
is
operated and
controlled
by a
turn
type, three poled, dash switch,
containing
a 6
amp. circuit breaker.
Current
flow
is directed from
the
battery through
the
ignition
switch
to the
wiper dash switch assembly
to the

two-speed
wiper motor, which passes current from the designated motor brush (high,
low or
park)
to

the armature circuit
to
ground.

H-143.
Troubleshooting Procedure
Troubleshooting procedures
are
divided into
two

categories: wiper troubleshooting
in
vehicle; wiper
troubleshooting
on
bench.
Fig. H-65 and H-66

illustrates connecting leads
of the
two-speed
wiper for either bench operation
or to run
wiper inde­
pendently
of
dash switch and vehicle wiring when
installed
in the
vehicle.
H-144. Wiper Troubleshooting
