8E -2 WINDSHIELD WIPER SYSTEMS F CARLINE
brush circuit (Fig. 12) is completed to the (+) 12 volts
DC source and the wiper motor runs at that particular
speed setting.
Moving the switch to the PULSE mode operates
the wiper motor intermittently and the delay can be
varied by moving the switch back and forth in the Delay
Mode. An instantaneous wipe can be obtained by mov-
ing the switch to the MIST position. If the switch is
pressed continually, a continuous wiping action will be
performed. See Figs. 14,
15, and 16.
DIAGNOSVC PROCEDURES
The following procedures assume that the service
technician has checked:
@ the continuity of circuit harness wiring,
@ that the wiper-motor assembly-to-dash
mounting hardware is tight,
circuit fuses, and
@ that the washer hoses are clear, not kinked,
disconnected or broken.
1. Apply a (+) 12 volt DC (source) voltage to wiper
connector pins as shown in Fig. 13. If the motor
runs in all operating modes
(LO, HI; PARK &
PULSE), perform the voltage and continuity wiper
switch tests as shown on Figs. 14, 15 and 16.
2. If the wiper motor does not run in any one or all
of the operating modes, refer to the Wiper-Washer
Motor Diagnostic Procedures Reference (Fig.
4).
WASHER PUMP
Check washer pump operation before removing
washer pump from the car. Disconnect (cover) wiring
harness connection to wiper cover connector. Then ap-
ply a
(+) 12 volt DC (source) voltage to wiper terminals
as shown on Fig. 17.
1. If washer pump motor does not run or does not
pump water, replace washer pump, See On-Car
Service procedures for "Washer Pump
Replacement.
' '
2. If washer pump motor runs and pumps water, the
problem is in the wiper switch. See Fig. 16 for
switch test procedures.
See Fig. 12 for wiper circuit diagrams.
WIPER MOTOR
Check motor operation before removing wiper as-
sembly from the car. Disconnect wiring harness from
wiper assembly before performing the following checks:
