WIPERS AND WASHERS
84-8 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Description
General
All markets have a common wiper system with headlamp powerwash as an option.
The wipers system comprises two front wipers and one rear wiper which are powered by electric motors. A washer
reservoir is located in the front left hand wheel arch and is fitted with two electric pumps. Each pump supplies washer
fluid to either the front or rear screens. On certain models, a third pump can be fitted to operate a headlamp power
wash function. Operation of the front and rear wipers and washers is controlled by the driver using switches located
on a steering column stalk and push button switches on the fascia.
Control of the wipers and washers is achieved by the following components:
lBCU.
lIDM.
lFront wiper relay.
lFront wash/ wipe switch.
lVariable delay switch.
lFront wiper motor assembly.
lFront washer pump motor.
lRear wiper relay.
lRear wiper switch.
lRear washer switch.
lRear wiper motor.
lRear washer pump motor.
Both the Body Control Unit (BCU) and the Intelligent Driver Module (IDM) control the wiper system. The BCU controls
the time delay function of the wiper system and is located below and behind the passenger glovebox. During engine
cranking the BCU prevents wiper functions. Two relays are located in the passenger compartment fusebox. The
relays control the delay operation of the front and rear wipers. The relays are an integral part of the fusebox and
cannot be renewed separately.
Power for the wiper system is supplied by the IDM, which is integral with the passenger fusebox and cannot be
renewed as a component. A serial communication link allows communication between the IDM and the BCU.
The system has diagnostic capabilities through TestBook.
Front wipers
The two front windscreen wipers are operated by a linkage assembly and an electric motor located under the plenum
grill below the windscreen. The linkage and motor assembly is handed for left and right hand drive vehicles. The motor
is an integral part of the linkage and cannot be replaced separately.
The linkage comprises a pressed steel mounting plate which provides for the attachment of a wheel box at each end.
The mounting plate is secured to the bulkhead with flanged nuts which attach to a stud plate located behind the
bulkhead. A link arm is attached to each wheel box by a short link and secured with circlips. The link arm has an
attachment hole centrally located along its length for the electric motor drive link.
The electric motor is mounted in a recess in the bulkhead below a sealed cover plate. The drive spindle of the motor
protrudes through the cover plate and is fitted with a link. The link is attached to a tapered spline on the motor spindle
and is secured with a lock washer and nut. The opposite end of the link is attached to the central attachment point on
the link arm and secured with a circlip.
Each wheel box has a taper splined shaft which allows for the attachment of the wiper arm which is secured with a
washer and nut. The shaft of each wheel box is passed through a rubber sealed aperture in the plenum. The wiper
arm attachment to the splined shaft has a pivot to which the remainder of the arm is attached. The two parts of the
arm are connected by a spring which controls the pressure of the blade on the screen to a predetermined amount.
The wiper blades are attached to the wiper arms with a clips that allow the blade to pivot. Each wiper blade comprises
a number of levers and yokes to which the rubber wiper is attached. The levers and yokes ensure that the pressure
applied by the arm spring is distributed evenly along the full length of the blade. The rubber wiper is held in the yokes
by a pair of stainless steel strips which also contribute to the even distribution of spring pressure along the blade. The
driver's side wiper blade is fitted with an aerofoil which presses the blade onto the screen at high speed. This prevents
the blade from lifting off the screen and maintains the wiping performance.

84-12 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Rear wiper
The rear wiper is driven directly from an electric motor located inside the tail door. The motor is mounted inside the
tail door with two bolts, lock washers and washers. The motor mounting brackets have rubber inserts to prevent motor
operating noise being transferred to the door structure. The motor spindle is fitted with a seal and protrudes through
a hole in the tail door outer skin panel. The motor spindle is secured to the tail door with a washer and nut.
The motor output spindle has a taper splined shaft which allows for the attachment of the wiper arm which is secured
with a nut. The wiper arm attachment to the splined shaft has a pivot to which the remainder of the arm is attached.
The two parts of the arm are connected by a spring which controls the pressure of the blade on the window to a
predetermined amount.
The wiper blade is attached to the wiper arms with a clip which allows the blade to pivot. The wiper blade comprises
of a number of levers and yokes to which the rubber wiper is attached. The levers and yokes ensure that the pressure
applied by the arm spring is evenly distributed along the full length of the blade. The rubber wiper is held in the yokes
by a pair of stainless steel strips which also contribute to the even distribution of spring pressure along the blade.
Rear wiper switch
The rear wiper switch is a latching pushbutton switch and is located on the right hand side of the instrument pack.
Activating the rear wiper switch provides an earth signal to the BCU. The BCU signals the IDM to energise the rear
wiper relay, which provides battery voltage to the rear wiper motor.

BODY CONTROL UNIT
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-3-1
BODY CONTROL UNIT DESCRIPTION AND OPERAT ION
Description
General
The Body Control Unit (BCU) is located behind the passenger glovebox and is connected to the main harness by four
connectors on its bottom edge and an additional connector located on the side of the BCU casing. Mounting the BCU
behind the fascia makes it reasonably inaccessible for intruders to disable the anti-theft system.
The BCU uses solid-state microprocessor control to perform logical operations and timing functions for a variety of
the vehicle's electrically operated systems, these include:
lDoor locking.
lAnti-theft alarm and immobilisation system.
lExterior lighting including direction indicators and hazard warning lamps.
lCourtesy lighting.
lWipers and washers.
lElectric windows and sunroof.
lHeated windows.
The BCU also communicates with several other electronically controlled systems such as the EAT ECU and SLABS
ECU and also has a datalink between the Intelligent Driver Module (IDM) and the instrument pack. The datalink is a
low speed bus capable of transmitting and receiving messages at a data rate of 10,400 bits per second. Additional
inputs and outputs to peripheral devices are included which are necessary for determining vehicle status for particular
logical operations e.g. crank, ignition key inserted, fuel flap enable etc.
The BCU receives its power supply from the engine compartment fuse box, and is protected by a 10 A fuse.
The BCU communicates with the IDM to provide the control signals to perform power switching operations in
conjunction with dedicated relays.
IDM
The IDM is integrated into the passenger compartment fuse box, which is mounted behind the fascia below the
steering column. There are no harnesses between the fuse box and the IDM. The IDM performs the power switching
operations for several of the vehicle's electrical systems.
The IDM communicates with the BCU and the instrument pack via a serial interface. If the BCU or the IDM is replaced,
the communications link between the two units has to be re-established. This can be done either by switching on the
ignition and leaving it on for five minutes, or by using TestBook. The vehicle immobilisation will remain active until the
communications link between the BCU and IDM has been re-established.
Transit mode
To prevent excessive battery drain during transit to overseas markets, the vehicle is placed in a transit mode. The
following functions are disabled when the vehicle is in transit mode:
lVolumetric sensors.
lPassive immobilisation.
lImmobilisation of the vehicle by use of door lock.
lIgnition key interlock.
lElectric seat enable time-out with driver's door open.

BODY CONTROL UNIT
86-3-2 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Power supply
Battery supply to the BCU and the IDM is provided through a 10 A fuse located in the engine compartment fuse box.
The BCU unit receives an ignition switched power supply (ignition switch position II) input via a 10 A fuse in the
passenger compartment fuse box.
The BCU receives a signal when the ignition switch is turned to the crank position, it then supplies an earth path to
the starter relay coil, to enable the crank operation by supplying power through the starter relay contacts to the starter
motor.
Battery voltage is monitored and BCU operation will function normally between 8 and 18 volts. Between 5.7 and 8
volts the BCU is in the 'under volts' state. The status of the battery is used to determine which outputs may be driven.
If a voltage supply above 18 volts is experienced, outputs will not normally be driven except for those functions which
are required during cranking (robust immobilisation, antenna coil, crank enable relay and feed to gear position switch
contacts W, X, Y, Z). In the over voltage state the vehicle can be driven, but all other functions are disabled and
outputs are switched off (power windows, heated screen, direction indicators etc.).
All functions are disabled on power up until communications between the BCU and IDM have been established. If
communications cannot be established, operation will commence with degraded functionality.
Battery supply to the IDM is provided through the inertia switch and a 10 A fuse in the engine compartment fuse box.
If the inertia switch contacts are closed battery voltage is available at the IDM; if the inertia switch contacts are open
there is no battery supply to the IDM. The supply condition of the IDM is signalled to the BCU via the serial bus. If the
inertia switch is operated (contacts open) the change in state is detected by the BCU which unlocks the doors if the
ignition switch is in position II and the alarm is not set.
The BCU is earthed through a hard-wire connection.
Inputs and outputs
The BCU and IDM process inputs and provide the necessary outputs for control and operation of the vehicle's 'body'
systems.
BCU inputs
The BCU processes signals received from the following components:
lDoor latch switches.
lDriver's door key lock/ unlock switches.
lBonnet activated security system.
lVolumetric sensors.
lCentral Door Locking (CDL) switches.
lRemote transmitter (via receiver unit).
lInertia fuel cut-off switch.
lIgnition switch.
lFuel flap release switch.
The input voltages (V
in) for BCU digital signals are defined as follows:
lLogic 1 when V
in ≥ 6V.
lLogic 0 when V
in ≤ 2V.
BCU input voltages between 2 and 6 volts are indeterminate and cannot be guaranteed.
Analogue input voltages are measured as a ratio with respect to battery voltage.

BODY CONTROL UNIT
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-3-3
BCU outputs
The BCU processes the input signals it receives and uses the information to determine the control outputs that need
to be established for any given set of conditions. The BCU provides controlled outputs for the following systems:
lInterior courtesy lamps.
lFuel flap release actuator.
lAnti-theft status LED.
lEngine Control Module.
lDoor lock actuators.
lDirection indicators and hazard warning lamps.
lHeadlamps.
lAlarm sounder.
lVehicle horns.
lBattery backed sounder.
lStarter relay.
lPassive re-mobilisation exciter coil.
Simultaneous switching of outputs in different units is limited by the bus transfer time, but the skew is no longer than
100 ms for either the BCU or the IDM. When the processor is reset, all outputs are switched off until the inputs have
been read for the first time to check current condition.
