WARNING: IF SO EQUIPPED WITH A
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS),
REFER TO THE SRS COMPONENT AND WIRING
LOCATION VIEW IN ORDER TO DETERMINE
WHETHER YOU ARE PERFORMING SERVICE ON OR
NEAR THE SRS COMPONENTS OR THE SRS
WIRING. WHEN YOU ARE PERFORMING SERVICE
ON OR NEAR THE SRS COMPONENTS OR THE SRS
WIRING, REFER TO THE SRS SERVICE
INFORMATION. FAILURE TO FOLLOW WARNINGS
COULD RESULT IN POSSIBLE AIR BAG
DEPLOYMENT, PERSONAL INJURY, OR
OTHERWISE UNNEEDED SRS SYSTEM REPAIRS.CAUTION: Always use the correct fastener in the
proper location. When you replace a fastener, use
ONLY the exact part number for that application.
ISUZU will call out those fasteners that require a
replacement after removal. ISUZU will also call out
the fasteners that require thread lockers or thread
sealant. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, do not
use supplemental coatings (Paints, greases, or other
corrosion inhibitors) on threaded fasteners or
fastener joint interfaces. Generally, such coatings
adversely affect the fastener torque and the joint
clamping force, and may damage the fastener. When
you install fasteners, use the correct tightening
sequence and specifications. Following these
instructions can help you avoid damage to parts and
systems.
Windshield Wiper/Washer System
General Description
The circuit consists of the starter switch, windshield wiper
& washer switch, windshield wiper motor, windshield
washer motor and windshield intermittent relay.When the wiper & washer switch is turned on with the
starter switch on, the battery voltage is applied to the
wiper motor to activate the wiper.
The washer motor squirts glass cleaning fluid while the
washer switch is being pushed. The intermittent relay is
used to control motion of the wiper.

the starter switch on, the wiper will make 5 strokes with
washer solution applied between each of the first 4
strokes, regardless of the length of time the switch is held
down.
The washer nozzle is installed to the wiper blade, and the
tank to which the washer motor is installed shared among
the headlight washer and the windshield washer.

826RS007
Installation
To install, follow the removal steps in the reverse order,
noting the following point.
1. When installing the bezel, align the projected portion
of the socket with the notch of the bezel.

The chassis electrical system is a 12–volt system with a
negative ground polarity.
Wire size are appropriate to respective circuits, and
classified by color. (The classification of harnesses by
color is shown on the circuit diagram for ease of harness
identification.)
The wire size is determined by load capacity and the
length of wire required.
The vehicle harnesses are: body harness, chassis
harness, engine room harness, instrument harness,
transmission harness, engine ECGI harness, dome light
harness, door harness, rear body harness, tailgate
harness, SRS harness and battery cables.
The harnesses are protected either by tape or corrugated
tube, depending on harness location.
The circuit for each system consists of the power source,
wire, fuse, relay, switch, load parts and ground, all of
which are shown on the circuit diagram.
In this section, each electrical device is classified by
system.
For major parts shown on the circuit based on the circuit
diagram for each system, a summary, diagnosis of
troubles and inspection procedures are detailed.
Notes for Working on Electrical
Items
Disconnecting the Battery Cable
1. All switches should be in the “OFF” position.
2. Disconnect the battery ground cable (2).
3. Disconnect the battery positive cable (1).
CAUTION: It is important that the battery ground
cable be disconnected first. Disconnecting the
battery positive cable first can result in a short circuit.
Connecting the Battery Cable
Follow the disconnecting procedure in the reverse order.CAUTION: Clean the battery terminal and apply a
light coat of grease to prevent terminal corrosion.
Disconnecting the Connector
Some connectors have a tang lock to hold the connectors
together during vehicle operation.
Some tang locks are released by pulling them towards
you (1).
Other tang locks are released by pressing them forward
(2).
Determine which type of tang lock is on the connector
being handled.
Firmly grasp both sides (male and female) of the
connector (3).
Release the tang lock and carefully pull the two halves of
the connector apart.
Never pull on the wires to separate the connectors (4).
