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.

(Washer Hose and Nozzle)
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION OF
WASHER HOSE AND NOZZLE
1. REMOVE WASHER HOSE(a) Remove fender liner.
(b) Disconnect washer hose from washer motor.
(c) Remove the hose clamps as shown.HINT: When installing or removing the hose clamp on the un-
derside of the engine hood, remove the clip on the underside
of the silencer.
(d) Remove service hole grommet and disconnect the hose from washer nozzle.
2. INSTALL WASHER HOSE For installation follow the removal procedure in reverse.
HINT: During assembly, the washer hose should be passed
under neath the engine hood hinge on the body side.
3. REMOVE WASHER NOZZLE (a) Remove service hole grommet.
(b) Disconnect washer hose from nozzle.
(c) Press on the claw on the underside of the nozzle and remove it from above.
4. INSTALL WASHER NOZZLE For installation follow the removal procedure in reverse.
ADJUSTMENT OF WASHER NOZZLE
1. INSPECT WASHER NOZZLE
(a) While operating the washer, check whether the upper point where the washer fluid hits the windshield and the
up surge area are within the range indicated by the
hatched line.
(A) Approx. 150 mm (5.91 in.)
(B) Approx. 50 mm (1.99 in.)
(C) Approx. 0±1000 mm (0±3.94 in.)
(b) Check if the lower point where the washer fluid hits thewindshield is within the range of the wiping pattern (the
area of the glass which is wiped by the wiped blades.)
2. ADJUST WASHER NOZZLE Using a tool like that shown in the figure, change the direction
of the nozzle hole to adjust the point where washer fluid
strikes the windshield.
