Open the hood, remove the cap nuts, and caretully
remove the wiper arms so that they do not touch
the hood.
Remove the cowl cover (see section 201.
Disconnect the 5P connector trom the windshield
wiper motor.
Test the motor by connecting battery power and
ground according to the table.
lf the motor does not tun or fails to run smoothly,
replace it.
Connect an analog voltmeter between the No. 5 (+)
and No. 3 (-) terminals, and run the motor at low or
high speed.
The voltmeter should alternately indicate 0 V 8nd
4 V or less.
