a) Connect 12 V battery (+) terminal to terminal ªAº of wiper mo-
tor (1) and (±) terminal to Black lead wire (2) (Type A, B) or
terminal ªEº (Type C), and let the motor turn.
b) Disconnect terminal ªAº from battery, and let the motor stop.
c) Connect terminal ªAº and ªDº with a jumper wire (3), and con-
nect terminal ªCº to battery (+) terminal. Observe the motor
turns once again then stops at a given position.
d) Repeat a) thru c) several times and inspect if the motor stops
at the given position every time.

Connect battery (+) and (±) terminals to pump (+) and (±) terminals
respectively to check pumping rate.
Check for both front (3) and rear (2) (if equipped) washer pump.
Pumping Rate:

Rear Wiper Intermittent Relay
[ON circuit]
1) Connect positive terminal of battery to terminals ª1º and ª4º of
relay, negative terminal to terminal ª5º of relay and check voltage
between terminals ª6º and ª5º of relay.
If measured voltage is battery voltage, relay is in good condition.
If not, replace relay.
2) Connect positive terminal of battery to terminal ª2º of relay, then
disconnect positive terminal from terminal ª4º of relay and check
voltage between terminals ª6º and ª5º of relay.
If measured voltage is battery voltage, relay is in good condition.
If not, replace relay.
3) Disconnect positive terminal from terminal ª2º of relay and check
voltage between terminals ª6º and ª5º of relay.
If measured voltage is about 0 V, relay is in good condition.
If not, replace relay.
[WASH circuit]
1) Connect positive terminal of battery to terminal ª1º of relay and
negative terminal to terminal ª5º of relay. Then connect positive
terminal to terminal ª7º checking voltage between terminals ª6º
and ª5º of relay.
If measured voltage changes from about 0 V to battery voltage
0.6 to 1.5 seconds after connecting positive terminal to terminal
ª7º, relay is in good condition. If not, replace relay.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Seat belt with ELR
The seat belt with Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) is designed so that it locks immediately (to prevent the web-
bing from being pulled out of the retractor any further) when any of the following items is detected as exceeding
each set value; speed at which the webbing is pulled out of the retractor, acceleration or deceleration of the vehicle
speed, and inclination.
Seat belt with A-ELR
The automatic and emergency locking retractor (A-ELR) works as an Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) till its
webbing is pulled all the way out and then on as an Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) till it is retracted fully.
ALR: Automatically locks when the webbing is pulled out from the retractor and allowed to retract even a little.
Then the webbing can not be pulled out any further, unless it is wound all the way back into the retractor, which
releases the lock and allows the webbing to be pulled out.
Driver and front passenger side air bags
The driver and front passenger side air bags are components of the air bag system. In occurrence of a front collision
with an impact larger than a certain set value, they are activated by the ignition signal from SDM to supplement
protection offered by the driver and front passenger seat belts.
the driver air bag (inflator) module is deployed from the center of the steering column
the passenger air bag (inflator) module from the top of the instrument panel in front of the front passenger seat
For more information, refer to SECTION 10B ªAir Bag Systemº.
