WIPER AND WASHER SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
The component parts of this system and their functions are described in the\
following table.
Parts NameFunction
Wiper Switch
This switch changes the current from the wiper motor in order to operate\
the wiper motor
at different speeds.
It also has a built±in variable resistor which is used to adjust the \
interval for intermittent
operation.
Wiper RelayThis relay turns the current to the wiper motor ON and OFF at intervals \
and operates the
wipers continuously when the washer switch is ON.
Wiper MotorSwitching of the current at the wiper switch and wiper relay operates th\
e motor at each speed
(HI, LO) and at intervals (INT), thus moving the wiper arms and blad\
es.
Washer SwitchBy grounding current from the washer motor, this switch operates the washer motor.
Washer MotorA pump in this motor pumps washer fluid and sprays it out from the washe\
r nozzles.

DESCRIPTION
The combination meter has various meters and gauges which show the vehicle'\
s condition, warning lights which
monitor abnormalities in the vehicle and inform the driver, indicator lights which inform the driver of the condition
of each part of vehicle, and a function for illumination and brightness ad\
justment of meters and gauges.
The component parts of this system and their functions are described in \
the following table.
Parts NameFunction
SpeedometerThe speedometer needle moves in accordance with signals from the speed s\
ensor to
indicate the vehicle's speed.
TachometerThe tachometer needle moves in accordance with signals from the igniter \
to indicate the
engine's speed.
Water Temperatrue
GaugeThe water temperature gauge's needle moves in accordance with signals from the send-
er gauge and indicates the temperature of the engine coolant.
Fuel GaugeThe fuel gauge needle moves in accordance with signals from the sender g\
auge, indicat-
ing the amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank.
OdometerThe odometer counts the total distance traveled by the vehicle in accord\
ance with pulse
signals from the speed sensor.
Twin Trip Switch
The twin trip meter counts the distance traveled by the vehicle in accor\
dance with pulse
signals from the speed sensor. It can be reset using a switch and can be used to switch
between trip meters A and B.
Circuit Plate
This plate contains the circuitry for each meter and gauge and for each \
warning light and
indicator light, as well as an internal engine oil level warning drive c\
ircuit, drive circuits for
the odometer and trip meter and brightness adjustment circuitry for each\
indicator.
Speed SensorMounted in the transmission, this sensor outputs pulse signals to the co\
mbination meter
in accordance with the speed of the output shaft.
Twin Trip SwitchOperation of this switch switches between the A and B trip meters and se\
nds reset sig-
nals to the combination meter.
Water
Temperature Sender
GaugeThis sender converts engine coolant temperatures to a resistance value i\
n signal form to
the combination meter.
Fuel Sender GaugeThis sender converts the level of fuel remaining in fuel tank to resista\
nce value and
sends the resistance value in signal form to combination meter.
Rheostat Light
Control VolumeIn order to adjust the degree of illumination of the combination meter, the resistance val-
ue of the built±in variable resistor is sent to the combination meter\
and rheostat light
control.
Fuel Level Warning
SwitchWhen the level of fuel remaining falls below a predetermined level, cont\
inuity is estab-
lished with this switch, which is built into the fuel sender gauge, caus\
ing a warning light
to light up.
Low Oil Pressure
Warning SwitchThis switch is mounted on the engine block. Continuity is established in\
this switch when
the oil pressure is low, causing a warning light to light up.
Integration Relay (Seat
Belt Warning Relay)
This relay receives current from fuse GAUGE and DOME and is connected to\
each
buckle switch, door courtesy switch, key unlock warning switch and warni\
ng light. As
part of the seat belt warning system, it sounds a chime and lights a war\
ning light when
seat belts are unfastened. As part of the key unlock warning system, it \
sounds a chime
when the set conditions are fulfilled.
Light Failure SensorThis sensor senses when a bulb in rear combination light is burnt out an\
d lights up a
warning light.
