- How the Gircuit Works
With the ignition switch in ON (ll) or START (lll),
battery voltage is supplied through fuse 15 and
the BLI(WHT and BLK/YEL wire to the vehicle
speed sensor (VSS). The sensor is grounded by
the BLK wire to G1 01 . The speedometer and
other control units in the circuit supply about 5
volts to the BLU/WHT wire. The vehicle soeed
sensor (VSS) intermittently grounds the
BLUMHT wire which generates a pulsed signal
in it. The number of pulses per minute
increases/decreasos with the soeed of the car.
Reter to th€ Service Manual (Section 23, Electrical)
tor specific tosts or troubleshooting procedures.
33-1

A/T Gear Position Indicator (conrd)
- How the Circuit Works
With the ignition switch in ON (ll) or START (lll),
voltage is applied to the A,/T gear position indicator.
The A,/T gear position switch provides a ground for
each position. As an input is grounded, its indicator
light comes on. lf you select R, for example, ground
will be provided to the input of the A,/T gear position
indicato( and the R indicator will come on.
With the headlight switch in PARK or HEAD, voltage
is applied to the RED/BLK wire terminal. This
changes the indicator panel illumination from fixed
to controlled by the dash lights dimmer input
through the RED wire.
When the powertrain (all except '96-'98 CVT) or
transmission ('96198 CVT) control module (PCM or
TCM) detects an abnormality in the automatic
transmission control system, or when you request
diagnostic trouble codes through the service check
connector, the PCM or TCM will make the D4 (D for
CVT) indicator light blink.
Refer to the Service Manual (Section 14,
Automatic Transmission) for specific tests or
troubleshooting procedures.

Front WiperMasher (cont'd)
- How the Circuit Works
When the ignition switch is in ON (ll) or START (lll),
battery voltage is applied to lhe combination wiper
switch. and the windshield wiDer motor.
Low Speed
When you turn the wiper switch to LO, the wiper
motor's low speed winding is grounded through the
BLU wire and the LO speed contacts of the wip€r
switch at G401, and the wipers run at low speed.
ParUOfl
When you turn the wiper switch OFF, the integrated
control unit (PARK input) grounds the wiper motor
through the BLUMHT wire. The cam switch on the
motor signals the integrated control unit that the
wipers are in the PARK position; the control unit
then removes ground from the motor, and the
wipers stop in the PARK position.
High Speed
When the wiper switch is in Hl, the high speed
windings of the windshield wiper motor are
grounded through the BLUIrEL wire and the Hl
contacts of the wiper switch at G401, and the
wipers run at high speed.
Intermittent
When the wiper switch is in lNT, battery voltage is
applied through the YEUBLU wire to the integrated
control unit (lntermittent wiper ON input). The
integrated control unit (lnt€rmittenvPark Wiper
Control) grounds the low speed windings of the
wiper motor and the wipers make a single sweep
every few seconds (See Low Speed above). When
the wiper retums to the PARK position, the park
switch applies battery voltage through the
BLUMHT wire to the integrated control unit (PARK
input), and the wipers stop in the PARK position.
Mist
When you pull the wiper switch down to MIST
position, the high speed windings ot the wiper motor
are grounded through the BLU^/EL wire and the
closed contacts ot the mist switch at G401, and the
wipers make one pass across the windshield at high
speed. The ParUOff function then takes over and
the wipers stop in the PARK position.
Washel
When you pull the wiper switch toward you to turn
on the washer switch, battery vollage is applied to
the washer motor. The motor pumps fluid onto the
windshield until you release the lever; on '98r99
models, the integrated control unit (windshield
washer ON input) s€nses power at the WHT/BLK
wire terminal and runs the wipers whenever the
washer motor runs.
Refer lo the Service Manual (Seclion 23, Electrical)
for specific tests or troubleshooting procedures.
