breaker cavity. Meter should read battery voltage.
If not OK, repair wiring from ignition switch.
(b) Measure resistance across circuit breaker ter-
minals. Meter should read zero ohms. If not OK,
replace failed circuit breaker.

nector (gray) from wiper switch side of wiring har-
ness connector (black), or from intermittent wipe
module (if equipped) at base of steering column. Turn
ignition switch to ACCESSORY or ON.
(a) Measure voltage at unplugged wiper motor
side of wiring harness connector (gray) terminal D.
Meter should read battery voltage. If not OK, re-
pair wiring from circuit breaker.
(b) Turn ignition switch to OFF and measure re-
sistance from unplugged wiper motor side of wiring
harness connector (gray) terminal G to ground.
Meter should read zero ohms. If not OK, repair
wiring to ground.
(3) Leave ignition switch in OFF, and back probe
wiring harness connector at wiper motor. Measure re-
sistance from terminal E of wiper motor side of con-
nector to ground. Meter should read zero ohms. If not
OK, repair wiring to ground.
(4) If equipped with intermittent wipe, turn igni-
tion switch to ACCESSORY or ON. Turn wiper
switch to LOW or HIGH. Unplug wiper switch side of
wiring harness connector (black) from intermittent
wipe module. Then plug both connectors that have
been removed from intermittent wipe module into
each other.
CAUTION: DO NOT move the wiper switch to DE-
LAY with the intermittent wipe module removed
from the circuit. If the switch is moved to the DE-
LAY position during the next step, the switch will be
damaged.
Test wiper operation in LOW and HIGH speed
modes, and test washer operation. If these modes
were inoperative, but are OK now, replace failed in-
termittent wipe module.
(5) To test the wiper/washer switch, see Windshield
Wiper/Washer Switch Testing. Turn ignition switch to
OFF. Position the wiper switch as indicated, and
back probe wiper switch side of wiring harness con-
nector (black). If switch tests OK, go to step 6. If not
OK, replace switch and go to step 7.

wiper switch in LOW, MIST and with washer
switch depressed. Meter should read battery volt-
age. If not OK, replace switch.

switch to OFF. Meter should read battery voltage
until wipers park and then zero volts. If OK, go to
step 7. If not OK, check wiring to wiper motor, then
go to step 8.

terminal H. Meter should read battery voltage. If
OK, but wipers do not operate, replace failed wiper
motor. If not OK, repair wiring from switch or in-
termittent wipe module connector.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Each vehicle is equipped with various lamp assem-
blies. A good ground is necessary for proper lighting
operation. Grounding is provided by the lamp socket
when it comes in contact with the metal body, or
through a separate ground wire.
When changing lamp bulbs check the socket for
corrosion. If corrosion is present, clean it with a wire
brush and coat the inside of the socket lightly with
Mopar Multi-Purpose Grease or equivalent.
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURESÐXJ
When a vehicle experiences problems with the
headlamp system, verify the condition of the batteryconnections, charging system, headlamp bulbs, wire
connectors, relay, high beam dimmer switch and
headlamp switch. Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Dia-
grams for component locations and circuit informa-
tion.
Always begin any diagnosis by testing all of the
fuses and circuit breakers in the system. Refer to
Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams.
