SERVO
DESCRIPTION
The servo unit consists of a solenoid valve body,
and a vacuum chamber. The solenoid valve body con-
tains three solenoids:²Vacuum
²Vent
²Dump
The vacuum chamber contains a diaphragm with a
cable attached to control the throttle linkage.
OPERATION
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) controls the
solenoid valve body. The solenoid valve body controls
the application and release of vacuum to the dia-
phragm of the vacuum servo. The servo unit cannot
be repaired and is serviced only as a complete assem-
bly.
Power is supplied to the servo's by the PCM
through the brake switch. The PCM controls the
ground path for the vacuum and vent solenoids.
The dump solenoid is energized anytime it receives
power. If power to the dump solenoid is interrupted,
the solenoid dumps vacuum in the servo. This pro-
vides a safety backup to the vent and vacuum sole-
noids.
The vacuum and vent solenoids must be grounded
at the PCM to operate. When the PCM grounds the
vacuum servo solenoid, the solenoid allows vacuum
to enter the servo and pull open the throttle plate
using the cable. When the PCM breaks the ground,
the solenoid closes and no more vacuum is allowed to
enter the servo. The PCM also operates the vent sole-
noid via ground. The vent solenoid opens and closes a
passage to bleed or hold vacuum in the servo as
required.
The PCM duty cycles the vacuum and vent sole-
noids to maintain the set speed, or to accelerate and
decelerate the vehicle. To increase throttle opening,
the PCM grounds the vacuum and vent solenoids. To
decrease throttle opening, the PCM removes the
grounds from the vacuum and vent solenoids. When
the brake is released, if vehicle speed exceeds 30
mph to resume, 35 mph to set, and the RES/ACCEL
switch has been depressed, ground for the vent and
vacuum circuits is restored.

electronic circuitry of the ITM which includes a
microprocessor, and an ultrasonic receive transducer.
A molded plastic connector receptacle containing six
terminal pins that is soldered to a small circuit board
and extends through a clearance hole in the left front
corner of the ITM housing, and an ultrasonic trans-
mit transducer housing extends from the center of
the right side of the ITM housing. Both the transmit
transducer on the right side of the module and the
receive transducer on the ITM circuit board are
aimed through two small round holes in the sight
shield of the trim cover. The ITM is connected to the
vehicle electrical system by a dedicated take out and
connector of the overhead wire harness that is inte-
gral to the headliner.
The ITM unit cannot be adjusted or repaired and,
if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced. The ITM is
serviced as a unit with the trim cover.
OPERATION
The microprocessor in the Intrusion Transceiver
Module (ITM) contains the motion sensor logic cir-
cuits and controls all of the features of the premium
version of the Vehicle Theft Alarm (VTA). The ITM
uses On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) and can communi-
cate with other electronic modules in the vehicle as
well as with the DRBIIItscan tool using the Pro-
grammable Communications Interface (PCI) data bus
network. This method of communication is used by
the ITM to communicate with the Body Control Mod-
ule (BCM) and for diagnosis and testing through the
16-way data link connector located on the driver side
lower edge of the instrument panel. The ITM also
communicates with the alarm siren over a dedicated
serial bus circuit.
The ITM microprocessor continuously monitors
inputs from its on-board motion sensor circuitry as
well as inputs from the BCM and the alarm siren
module. The on-board ITM motion sensor circuitry
transmits ultrasonic signals into the vehicle cabin
through a transmit transducer, then listens to the
returning signals as the bounce off of objects in the
vehicle interior. If an object is moving in the interior,
a detection circuit in the ITM senses this movement
through the modulation of the returning ultrasonic
signals that occurs due to the Doppler effect. The
motion detect function of the ITM can be disabled by
depressing the ªLockº button on the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) transmitter three times within fifteen
seconds, while the security indicator is still flashing
rapidly. The ITM will signal the alarm siren module
to provide a single siren ªchirpº as an audible confir-
mation that the motion sensor function has been dis-
abled.
If movement is detected, the ITM sends an elec-
tronic message to the BCM over the PCI data bus toflash the exterior lighting and sends an electronic
message to the alarm siren module over a dedicated
serial bus line to sound the siren. When the BCM
detects a breach in the perimeter protection through
a door, tailgate, flip-up glass, or hood ajar switch
input, it sends an electronic message to the ITM and
the ITM sends an electronic message to the BCM
over the PCI data bus to flash the exterior lighting
and sends an electronic message to the alarm siren
module over a dedicated serial bus line to sound the
siren. The ITM also monitors inputs from the alarm
siren module for siren battery or siren input/output
circuit tamper alerts, and siren battery condition
alerts, then sets active and stored Diagnostic Trouble
Codes (DTC) for any monitored system faults it
detects. An active fault only remains for the current
ignition switch cycle, while a stored fault causes a
DTC to be stored in memory by the ITM. If a fault
does not recur for fifty ignition cycles, the ITM will
automatically erase the stored DTC.
The ITM is connected to the vehicle electrical sys-
tem through a dedicated take out and connector of
the overhead wire harness. The ITM receives battery
current on a fused B(+) circuit through a fuse in the
Junction Block (JB), and receives ground through a
ground circuit and take out of the body wire harness.
This ground take out has a single eyelet terminal
connector that is secured by a ground screw to the
base of the left D-pillar behind the quarter trim
panel. These connections allow the ITM to remain
operational, regardless of the ignition switch position.
The hard wired inputs and outputs for the ITM may
be diagnosed and tested using conventional diagnos-
tic tools and procedures. However, conventional diag-
nostic methods will not prove conclusive in the
diagnosis of the ITM, the PCI data bus network, or
the electronic message inputs to and outputs from
the ITM. The most reliable, efficient, and accurate
means to diagnose the ITM, the PCI data bus net-
work, and the electronic message inputs to and out-
puts from the ITM requires the use of a DRBIIIt
scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic infor-
mation.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) While pulling downward lightly on either rear
corner of the Intrusion Transceiver Module (ITM)
trim cover, insert a small thin-bladed screwdriver
through each of the service holes on the rear edge of
the trim cover to depress and release the two inte-
gral rear latch features of the module from the
mounting bracket above the headliner (Fig. 11).

the engine compartment, on the front extension of
the right front wheel house panel below and behind
the right headlamp. This unit is designed to provide
the audible alert requirements for the ROW premium
VTA.
The alarm siren module consists of microprocessor-
based electronic control circuitry, the siren, and a
nickel metal hydride backup battery. All of the alarm
module components are protected and sealed within
a black molded plastic housing. A stamped steel
mounting bracket is secured to the module with
three stud plates and nuts that fit into slotted holes
at the top and each side of the bracket. The front
surface of the bracket features a tightly grouped
series of small holes that serves as an outlet for the
audible output of the alarm siren. The bottom of the
mounting bracket is bent at a right angle and has an
integral locating tab feature. Two mounting holes in
the horizontal surface of the bracket are used to
secure the alarm siren module to the wheel house
extension with two screws. An integral connector
receptacle extends forward from the upper left corner
of the alarm siren housing, and connects the unit to
the vehicle electrical system through a dedicated
take out and connector of the headlamp and dash
wire harness.
The alarm siren module cannot be repaired or
adjusted and, if faulty or damaged, it must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The microprocessor within the alarm siren module
performs the tasks required to provide the siren unit
features and functions based upon internal program-
ming and electronic arm and disarm message inputs
received from the Intrusion Transceiver Module
(ITM) over a dedicated serial bus communication cir-
cuit. The alarm siren module will self-detect prob-
lems with its internal and external power supply and
communication circuits, then send electronic mes-
sages indicating the problem to the ITM upon receiv-
ing a request from the ITM. The ITM will store a
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) for a detected alarm
siren module fault that can be retrieved with the
DRBIIItscan tool over the Programmable Communi-
cations Interface (PCI) data bus network through the
16-way data link connector located on the driver side
lower edge of the instrument panel.
When the Rest-Of-World (ROW) premium version
of the Vehicle Theft Alarm (VTA) is armed, the alarm
siren module microprocessor continuously monitors
inputs from the ITM for messages to sound its inter-
nal siren and enters its auto-detect mode. While in
the auto-detect mode, if the alarm siren module
detects that its power supply or communication cir-
cuits are being tampered with or have been sabo-taged, it will sound an alarm and continue to operate
through its on-board backup battery. If the arm siren
module is in its disarmed mode when its power sup-
ply or communication circuits are interrupted, the
siren will not sound. The alarm module will also
notify the ITM when the backup battery requires
charging, and the ITM will send a message that will
allow the backup battery to be charged through the
battery current and ground circuits to the alarm
module only when the ignition switch is in the On
position and the engine is running. This will prevent
the charging of the alarm backup battery from
depleting the charge in the main vehicle battery
while the vehicle is not being operated.
The alarm siren module receives battery current
on a fused B(+) circuit through a fuse in the Power
Distribution Center (PDC), and receives ground
through a ground circuit and take out of the head-
lamp and dash wire harness. This ground take out
has a single eyelet terminal connector that is secured
by a ground screw to the left inner fender shield in
the engine compartment. These connections allow the
alarm siren module to remain operational, regardless
of the ignition switch position. The hard wired inputs
and outputs for the alarm siren module may be diag-
nosed and tested using conventional diagnostic tools
and procedures. However, conventional diagnostic
methods will not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of
the internal circuitry or the backup battery of the
alarm siren module, the ITM, the serial bus commu-
nication line, or the electronic message inputs to and
outputs from the alarm siren module. The most reli-
able, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose the
alarm siren module, the ITM, the serial bus commu-
nication line, and the electronic message inputs to
and outputs from the alarm siren module requires
the use of a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the appro-
priate diagnostic information.

SIREN (Continued)

An electrically operated intermittent front wiper
and washer system is standard factory-installed
safety equipment on this model (Fig. 1). The front
wiper and washer system includes the following
major components, which are described in further
detail elsewhere in this service information:
²Body Control Module- The Body Control
Module (BCM) is located on the Junction Block (JB)
under the driver side outboard end of the instrument
panel. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC
CONTROL MODULES/BODY CONTROL MODULE
- DESCRIPTION).
²Front Check Valve- The front washer system
check valve is integral to the wye fitting located in
the washer plumbing between the cowl plenum
washer hose and the front washer nozzles, and is
concealed beneath the cowl plenum cover/grille panel
at the base of the windshield.
²Front Washer Nozzle- Two fluidic front
washer nozzles are secured with integral snap fea-
tures to dedicated openings in the cowl plenum cover/
grille panel located near the base of the windshield.
²Front Washer Plumbing- The plumbing for
the front washer system consists of rubber hoses and
molded plastic fittings. The plumbing is routed along
the right side of the engine compartment from the
washer reservoir, and through the dash panel into
the cowl plenum to the front washer nozzle fittings
beneath the cowl plenum cover/grille panel.
²Front Wiper Arm- The two front wiper arms
are secured with nuts to the threaded studs on the
ends of the two wiper pivot shafts, which extend
through the cowl plenum cover/grille panel located
near the base of the windshield.
²Front Wiper Blade- The two front wiper
blades are secured to the two front wiper arms with
an integral latch, and are parked on the glass near
the bottom of the windshield when the front wiper
system is not in operation.
²Front Wiper Module- The front wiper pivot
shafts are the only visible components of the front
wiper module. The remainder of the module is con-
cealed within the cowl plenum area beneath the cowl
plenum cover/grille panel. The front wiper module
includes the wiper module bracket, four rubber-iso-
lated wiper module mounts, the front wiper motor,
the wiper motor crank arm, the two wiper drive
links, and the two front wiper pivots.
²Multi-Function Switch- The multi-function
switch is located on the top of the steering column,
just below the steering wheel. The multi-function
switch includes a left (lighting) control stalk and a
right (wiper) control stalk. The right control stalk is
dedicated to providing all of the driver controls for
both the front and rear wiper systems. (Refer to 8 -ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR/
MULTI-FUNCTION SWITCH - DESCRIPTION).
²Washer Fluid Level Switch- The washer fluid
level switch is located in a dedicated hole near the
center of the rearward facing surface of the washer
reservoir, behind the right front wheel house splash
shield.
²Washer Pump/Motor- The reversible electric
washer pump/motor unit is located in a dedicated
hole on the lower outboard side of the washer reser-
voir, behind the right front wheel house splash
shield. This single reversible washer pump/motor
provides washer fluid to either the front or rear
washer system plumbing, depending upon the direc-
tion of the pump motor rotation.
²Washer Reservoir- The washer reservoir is
concealed behind the right front wheel house splash
shield ahead of the right front wheel. The washer
reservoir filler neck is the only visible portion of the
reservoir, and it is accessed from the right front cor-
ner of the engine compartment.
²Wiper High-Low Relay- The wiper high-low
relay is an International Standards Organization
(ISO) micro relay located in the Power Distribution
Center (PDC) in the engine compartment near the
battery.
²Wiper On-Off Relay- The wiper on-off relay is
an International Standards Organization (ISO) micro
relay located in the Power Distribution Center (PDC)
in the engine compartment near the battery.
Hard wired circuitry connects the front wiper and
washer system components to the electrical system of
the vehicle. These hard wired circuits are integral to
several wire harnesses, which are routed throughout
the vehicle and retained by many different methods.
These circuits may be connected to each other, to the
vehicle electrical system and to the front wiper and
washer system components through the use of a com-
bination of soldered splices, splice block connectors,
and many different types of wire harness terminal
connectors and insulators. Refer to the appropriate
wiring information. The wiring information includes
wiring diagrams, proper wire and connector repair
procedures, further details on wire harness routing
and retention, as well as pin-out and location views
for the various wire harness connectors, splices and
grounds.
OPERATING MODES The components of the front
wiper and washer system are designed to work in
concert to provide the following operating modes:
²Continuous Wipe Mode- The control knob on
the right (wiper) control stalk of the multi-function
switch has two continuous wipe positions, Low and
High. When selected, these switch positions will
cause the two-speed front wiper motor to operate in a
continuous low or high speed cycle.
KJFRONT WIPERS/WASHERS 8R - 3
FRONT WIPERS/WASHERS (Continued)

²Intermittent Wipe Mode- The control knob on
the right (wiper) control stalk of the multi-function
switch has five minor detent intermittent wipe posi-
tions. When selected, these switch positions will
cause the front wiper system to operate with one of
five delay intervals between complete wipe cycles.
²Mist Wipe Mode- The right (wiper) control
stalk of the multi-function switch has a momentary
Mist position. When selected, this switch position
will operate the front wipers in a low speed continu-
ous cycle for as long as the switch is held closed,
then will complete the current wipe cycle and park
the front wiper blades near the base of the wind-
shield when the switch is released.
²Washer Mode- When the momentary front
wash position of the right (wiper) control stalk of the
multi-function switch is selected with the front wiper
system operating in a continuous wipe mode, washer
fluid will be dispensed onto the windshield glass
through the washer nozzles for as long as the washer
switch is held closed. When the front washer switch
is actuated with the front wiper system operating in
an intermittent wipe mode, washer fluid is still dis-
pensed until the switch is released; however, the
front wipers will operate in a low speed continuous
cycle from the time the washer switch is closed until
several wipe cycles after the switch is released,
before returning to the selected intermittent wipe
mode.
²Wipe-After-Wash Mode- When the momentary
front wash position of the right (wiper) control stalk
of the multi-function switch is selected with the front
wiper system turned Off, the internal circuitry of the
BCM provides a wipe-after-wash feature. When
selected, this feature will operate the washer pump/
motor and the front wipers for as long as the front
washer switch is held closed, then provide several
additional wipe cycles after the switch is released
before parking the front wiper blades near the base
of the windshield.
OPERATION
The front wiper and washer system is designed to
provide the vehicle operator with a convenient, safe,
and reliable means of maintaining visibility through
the windshield glass. The various components of this
system are designed to convert electrical energy pro-
duced by the vehicle electrical system into the
mechanical action of the wiper blades to wipe the
outside surface of the glass, as well as into the
hydraulic action of the washer system to apply
washer fluid stored in an on-board reservoir to the
area of the glass to be wiped. When combined, these
components provide the means to effectively main-
tain clear visibility for the vehicle operator by remov-
ing excess accumulations of rain, snow, bugs, mud, orother minor debris from the outside windshield glass
surface that might be encountered while driving the
vehicle under numerous types of inclement operating
conditions.
The vehicle operator initiates all front wiper and
washer system functions with the right (wiper) con-
trol stalk of the multi-function switch that extends
from the right side of the steering column, just below
the steering wheel. Rotating the control knob on the
end of the control stalk, selects the Off, Delay, Low,
or High front wiper system operating modes. In the
Delay mode, the control knob also allows the vehicle
operator to select from one of five intermittent wipe
Delay intervals. Pulling the right control stalk down-
wards actuates the momentary front wiper system
Mist mode switch, while pulling the right control
stalk towards the steering wheel actuates the
momentary front washer system switch. The multi-
function switch provides hard wired resistor multi-
plexed inputs to the Body Control Module (BCM) for
all of the front wiper system functions, as well as a
separate hard wired sense input to the BCM for the
front washer system function.
The front wiper and washer system will only oper-
ate when the ignition switch is in the Accessory or
On positions. Battery current is directed from a B(+)
fuse in the Power Distribution Center (PDC) to the
wiper and washer system circuit breaker in the Junc-
tion Block (JB) through a fused ignition switch out-
put (run-acc) circuit. The automatic resetting circuit
breaker then provides battery current through a
fused ignition switch output (run-acc) circuit to the
wiper high/low relay, the wiper on/off relay, and the
park switch within the front wiper motor. A separate
fuse in the JB provides battery current through
another fused ignition switch output (run-acc) circuit
to the multi-function switch. The multi-function
switch circuitry uses this battery feed and a ground
circuit input to directly control the operation and
direction of the reversible electric washer pump/mo-
tor unit. The BCM uses low side drivers to control
front wiper system operation by energizing or de-en-
ergizing the wiper high/low and wiper on/off relays.
The hard wired circuits and components of the
front wiper and washer system may be diagnosed
and tested using conventional diagnostic tools and
procedures. However, conventional diagnostic meth-
ods may not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the
Body Control Module (BCM), or the inputs to or out-
puts from the BCM that control the front wiper and
washer system operating modes. The most reliable,
efficient, and accurate means to diagnose the BCM,
or the BCM inputs and outputs related to the various
front wiper and washer system operating modes
requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.
8R - 4 FRONT WIPERS/WASHERSKJ
FRONT WIPERS/WASHERS (Continued)

Following are paragraphs that briefly describe the
operation of each of the front wiper and washer sys-
tem operating modes.
CONTINUOUS WIPE MODE When the Low posi-
tion of the control knob on the right (wiper) control
stalk of the multi-function switch is selected, the
Body Control Module (BCM) energizes the wiper
on/off relay. This directs battery current through the
normally open contacts of the energized wiper on/off
relay and the normally closed contacts of the de-en-
ergized wiper high/low relay to the low speed brush
of the front wiper motor, causing the front wipers to
cycle at low speed. When the High position of the
control knob is selected, the BCM energizes both the
wiper on/off relay and the wiper high/low relay. This
directs battery current through the normally open
contacts of the energized wiper on/off relay and the
normally open contacts of the energized wiper high/
low relay to the high speed brush of the front wiper
motor, causing the front wipers to cycle at high
speed.
When the Off position of the control knob is
selected, the BCM de-energizes both the wiper on/off
and wiper high low relays, then one of two events
will occur. The event that occurs depends upon the
position of the wiper blades on the windshield at the
moment that the control knob Off position is selected.
If the wiper blades are in the down position on the
windshield when the Off position is selected, the
park switch that is integral to the front wiper motor
is closed to ground and the wiper motor ceases to
operate. If the wiper blades are not in the down posi-
tion on the windshield at the moment the Off posi-
tion is selected, the park switch is closed to battery
current from the fused ignition switch output (run-
acc) circuit of the front wiper motor. The park switch
directs this battery current to the low speed brush of
the wiper motor through the wiper park switch sense
circuit and the normally closed contacts of the de-en-
ergized wiper on/off and wiper high/low relays. This
causes the wiper motor to continue running at low
speed until the wiper blades are in the down position
on the windshield and the park switch is again
closed to ground.
INTERMITTENT WIPE MODE When the control
knob on the right (wiper) control stalk of the multi-
function switch is moved to one of the Delay interval
positions, the BCM electronic intermittent wipe logic
circuit responds by calculating the correct length of
time between wiper sweeps based upon the selected
delay interval input. The BCM monitors the chang-
ing state of the wiper motor park switch through a
hard wired front wiper park switch sense circuit
input. This input allows the BCM to determine the
proper intervals at which to energize and de-energize
the wiper on/off relay to operate the front wipermotor intermittently for one low speed cycle at a
time. The BCM logic is also programmed to provide
an immediate wipe cycle and begin a new delay
interval timing cycle each time a shorter delay inter-
val is selected, and to add the remaining delay tim-
ing interval to the new delay interval timing before
the next wipe cycle occurs each time a longer delay
interval is selected.
MIST WIPE MODE When the right (wiper) control
stalk of the multi-function switch is moved to the
momentary Mist position, the BCM energizes the
wiper on/off relay for as long as the Mist switch is
held closed, then de-energizes the relay when the
state of the Mist switch input changes to open. The
BCM can operate the front wiper motor in this mode
for only one low speed cycle at a time, or for an
indefinite number of sequential low speed cycles,
depending upon how long the Mist switch is held
closed.
WASH MODE When the right (wiper) control stalk
of the multi-function switch is moved to the momen-
tary front Wash position while the control knob is in
the Low or High positions, the circuitry within the
switch directs battery current and ground to the
washer pump/motor unit. This will cause the washer
pump/motor unit to be energized for as long as the
front Wash switch is held closed, and to de-energize
when the front Wash switch is released. When the
right (wiper) control stalk of the multi-function
switch is moved to the momentary front Wash posi-
tion while the control knob is in one of the Delay
interval positions, the front washer pump/motor oper-
ation is the same. However, the BCM energizes the
wiper on/off relay to override the selected delay inter-
val and operate the front wiper motor in a continu-
ous low speed mode for as long as the front Wash
switch is held closed, then de-energizes the relay and
reverts to the selected delay mode interval several
wipe cycles after the front Wash switch is released.
The BCM detects the front Wash switch state
through a hard wired washer pump driver circuit
input from the multi-function switch.
WIPE-AFTER-WASH MODE When the right
(wiper) control stalk of the multi-function switch is
moved to the momentary front Wash position while
the control knob is in the Off position, the BCM
detects that switch state through a hard wired
washer pump driver circuit input from the multi-
function switch. The BCM responds to this input by
energizing the wiper on/off relay for as long as the
Wash switch is held closed, then de-energizes the
relay several wipe cycles after the front Wash switch
is released. The BCM monitors the changing state of
the wiper motor park switch through a hard wired
front wiper park switch sense circuit input. This
input allows the BCM to count the number of wipe

FRONT WIPER MODULE
DESCRIPTION
The front wiper module bracket is secured with
two nuts below the wiper motor through rubber insu-
lators to two weld studs on the bottom of the cowl
plenum panel beneath the cowl plenum cover/grille
panel (Fig. 14). Two screws secure the top of the
module bracket to the cowl plenum panel through
rubber insulators located on the outboard end of each
pivot bracket. The ends of the wiper pivot shafts that
protrude through dedicated openings in the cowl ple-
num cover/grille panel to drive the wiper arms and
blades are the only visible components of the front
wiper module. The front wiper module consists of the
following major components:
²Bracket- The front wiper module bracket con-
sists of a long tubular steel main member that has a
die cast pivot bracket formation near each end where
the two wiper pivots are secured. A stamped steel
mounting plate for the wiper motor is secured with
welds near the center of the main member. A short
stamped steel tab that extends laterally from one
side of the mounting plate provides a mounting loca-
tion for the wiper motor pigtail wire connector.
²Crank Arm- The front wiper motor crank arm
is a stamped steel unit with a slotted hole on thedriven end that is secured to the wiper motor output
shaft with a nut, and has a ball stud secured to the
drive end.
²Linkage- Two stamped steel drive links con-
nect the wiper motor crank arm to the wiper pivot
lever arms. The right side drive link has a plastic
socket-type bushing on each end. The left side drive
link has a plastic socket-type bushing on one end,
and a plastic sleeve-type bushing on the other end.
The socket-type bushing on one end of each drive
link is snap-fit over the ball stud on the lever arm of
its respective pivot. The left side drive link sleeve-
type bushing end is then fit over the motor crank
arm ball stud, and the other socket-type bushing of
the right side drive link is snap-fit over the exposed
end of the wiper motor crank arm ball stud.
²Motor- The front wiper motor is secured with
three screws to the motor mounting plate near the
center of the wiper module bracket. The wiper motor
output shaft passes through a hole in the module
bracket, where a nut secures the wiper motor crank
arm to the motor output shaft. The two-speed perma-
nent magnet wiper motor features an integral trans-
mission, an internal park switch, and an internal
automatic resetting circuit breaker. A molded plastic
shield covers the top of the motor.
²Pivots- The two front wiper pivots are secured
within the die cast pivot brackets on the outboard
ends of the wiper module main member. The lever
arms that extend from the center of the pivot shafts
each have a ball stud on their end. The upper end of
each pivot shaft where the wiper arms will be fas-
tened each is tapered and serrated with a threaded
stud formation at the tip. The lower ends of the pivot
shafts are installed through lubricated bushings in
the pivot brackets and are secured with snap rings. A
molded plastic shield covers each pivot shaft where it
enters the pivot bracket.
The front wiper module cannot be adjusted or
repaired. If any component of the module is faulty or
damaged, the entire front wiper module unit must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The front wiper module operation is controlled by
the battery current inputs received by the wiper
motor from the wiper on/off and wiper high/low
relays. The wiper motor speed is controlled by cur-
rent flow to either the low speed or the high speed
set of brushes. The park switch is a single pole, sin-
gle throw, momentary switch within the wiper motor
that is mechanically actuated by the wiper motor
transmission components. The park switch alter-
nately closes the wiper park switch sense circuit to
ground or to battery current, depending upon the
position of the wipers on the glass. This feature

²Rear Wiper Module- The rear wiper motor
output shaft is the only visible component of the rear
wiper module. The remainder of the module is con-
cealed within the tailgate below the rear flip-up glass
opening. The rear wiper module includes the module
bracket, the rear wiper motor, and the rear wiper
electronic control circuitry.
²Washer Pump/Motor- The reversible electric
washer pump/motor unit is located in a dedicated
hole on the lower outboard side of the washer reser-
voir, behind the right front wheel house splash
shield. This single reversible washer pump/motor
provides washer fluid to either the front or rear
washer system plumbing, depending upon the direc-
tion of the pump motor rotation. (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/FRONT WIPERS/WASHERS/WASHER
PUMP MOTOR - DESCRIPTION).
²Washer Reservoir- The washer reservoir is
concealed behind the right front wheel house splash
shield ahead of the right front wheel. The washer
reservoir filler neck is the only visible portion of the
reservoir, and it is accessed from the right front cor-
ner of the engine compartment. This single washer
reservoir is shared by both the front and rear washer
systems. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/FRONT WIP-
ERS/WASHERS/WASHER RESERVOIR - DESCRIP-
TION).
Hard wired circuitry connects the rear wiper and
washer system components to the electrical system of
the vehicle. These hard wired circuits are integral to
several wire harnesses, which are routed throughout
the vehicle and retained by many different methods.
These circuits may be connected to each other, to the
vehicle electrical system and to the rear wiper and
washer system components through the use of a com-
bination of soldered splices, splice block connectors,
and many different types of wire harness terminal
connectors and insulators. Refer to the appropriate
wiring information. The wiring information includes
wiring diagrams, proper wire and connector repair
procedures, further details on wire harness routing
and retention, as well as pin-out and location views
for the various wire harness connectors, splices and
grounds.
OPERATING MODES The components of the rear
wiper and washer system are designed to work in
concert to provide the following operating modes:
²Continuous Wipe Mode- The control ring on
the right (wiper) control stalk of the multi-function
switch has an On position. When selected, this
switch position will cause the rear wiper motor to
operate in a continuous manner at a fixed wipe cycle
speed.
²Intermittent Wipe Mode- The control ring on
the right (wiper) control stalk of the multi-function
switch has a Delay position. When selected, thisswitch position will cause the rear wiper motor to
operate in an intermittent manner at a fixed interval
wipe cycle speed.
²Washer Mode- The control ring on the right
(wiper) control stalk of the multi-function switch has
two momentary Wash positions, one at the end of
each direction of control ring rotation. When the con-
trol ring is rotated to the downward (counterclock-
wise) Wash position, the rear washer system will
dispense washer fluid onto the flip-up glass and the
rear wiper motor will operate in a continuous mode
for as long as the switch is held closed, then provide
several additional wipe cycles after the washer
switch is released (wipe-after-wash mode). When the
control ring is rotated to the upward (clockwise)
Wash position, the rear washer system will dispense
washer fluid onto the flip-up glass and the rear wiper
motor will operate in a continuous mode for as long
as the switch is held closed, then return to fixed wipe
mode operation after the washer switch is released.
²Wipe-After-Wash Mode- The control ring on
the right (wiper) control stalk of the multi-function
switch has two momentary Wash positions, one at
the end of each direction of control ring rotation.
When the control ring is rotated to the downward
(counterclockwise) Wash position, the rear washer
system will dispense washer fluid onto the flip-up
glass and the rear wiper motor will operate in a con-
tinuous mode for as long as the switch is held closed,
then provide several additional wipe cycles after the
washer switch is released.
OPERATION
The rear wiper and washer system is designed to
provide the vehicle operator with a convenient, safe,
and reliable means of maintaining visibility through
the rear flip-up glass. The various components of this
system are designed to convert electrical energy pro-
duced by the vehicle electrical system into the
mechanical action of the wiper blade to wipe the out-
side surface of the glass, as well as into the hydraulic
action of the washer system to apply washer fluid
stored in an on-board reservoir to the area of the
glass to be wiped. When combined, these components
provide the means to effectively maintain clear visi-
bility for the vehicle operator by removing excess
accumulations of rain, snow, bugs, mud, or other
minor debris from the swing gate flip up glass sur-
face that might be encountered while driving the
vehicle under numerous types of inclement operating
conditions.
The vehicle operator initiates all rear wiper and
washer system functions with the right (wiper) con-
trol stalk of the multi-function switch that extends
from the right side of the steering column, just below
the steering wheel. Rotating the control ring on the

DESCRIPTION - SECTION IDENTIFICATION AND
INFORMATION
The wiring diagrams are grouped into individual
sections. If a component is most likely found in a par-
ticular group, it will be shown complete (all wires,
connectors, and pins) within that group. For exam-
ple, the Auto Shutdown Relay is most likely to be
found in Group 30, so it is shown there complete. It
can, however, be shown partially in another group if
it contains some associated wiring.
Splice diagrams in Section 8W-70 show the entire
splice and provide references to other sections the
splices serves. Section 8W-70 only contains splice dia-
grams that are not shown in their entirety some-
where else in the wiring diagrams.
Section 8W-80 shows each connector and the cir-
cuits involved with that connector. The connectors
are identified using the name/number on the dia-
gram pages.
