WIPER HIGH/LOW RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The wiper high/low relay is located in the Power
Distribution Center (PDC) in the engine compart-
ment near the battery. The wiper high/low relay is a
conventional International Standards Organization
(ISO) micro relay (Fig. 25). Relays conforming to theISO specifications have common physical dimensions,
current capacities, terminal patterns, and terminal
functions. The relay is contained within a small, rect-
angular, molded plastic housing and is connected to
all of the required inputs and outputs by five integral
male spade-type terminals that extend from the bot-
tom of the relay base.
The wiper high/low relay cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the unit must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The wiper high/low relay is an electromechanical
switch that uses a low current input from the Body
Control Module (BCM) to control a high current out-
put to the front wiper motor. The movable common
feed contact point is held against the fixed normally
closed contact point by spring pressure. When the
relay coil is energized, an electromagnetic field is
produced by the coil windings. This electromagnetic
field draws the movable relay contact point away
from the fixed normally closed contact point, and
holds it against the fixed normally open contact
point. When the relay coil is de-energized, spring
pressure returns the movable contact point back
against the fixed normally closed contact point. A
resistor is connected in parallel with the relay coil in
the relay, and helps to dissipate voltage spikes and
electromagnetic interference that can be generated as
the electromagnetic field of the relay coil collapses.
The wiper high/low relay terminals are connected
to the vehicle electrical system through a connector
receptacle in the Power Distribution Center (PDC).
The inputs and outputs of the wiper high/low relay
include:
²Common Feed Terminal- The common feed
terminal (30) is connected to the output of the wiper
on/off relay at all times through the wiper on/off
relay output circuit.
²Coil Ground Terminal- The coil ground termi-
nal (85) is connected to a control output of the Body
Control Module (BCM) through a front wiper high/
low relay control circuit. The BCM controls front
wiper motor operation by controlling a ground path
through this circuit.
²Coil Battery Terminal- The coil battery ter-
minal (86) receives battery current at all times from
a circuit breaker in the Junction Block (JB) through
a fused ignition switch output (run-acc) circuit.
²Normally Open Terminal- The normally open
terminal (87) is connected to the high speed brush of
the front wiper motor through a front wiper high/low
relay high speed output circuit, and is connected to
the high speed brush whenever the relay is ener-
gized.

WIPER ON/OFF RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The wiper on/off relay is located in the Power Dis-
tribution Center (PDC) in the engine compartment
near the battery. The wiper on/off relay is a conven-
tional International Standards Organization (ISO)
micro relay (Fig. 28). Relays conforming to the ISO
specifications have common physical dimensions, cur-
rent capacities, terminal patterns, and terminal func-
tions. The relay is contained within a small,
rectangular, molded plastic housing and is connected
to all of the required inputs and outputs by five inte-
gral male spade-type terminals that extend from the
bottom of the relay base.
The wiper on/off relay cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the unit must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The wiper on/off relay is an electromechanical
switch that uses a low current input from the Body
Control Module (BCM) to control a high current out-put to the front wiper motor. The movable common
feed contact point is held against the fixed normally
closed contact point by spring pressure. When the
relay coil is energized, an electromagnetic field is
produced by the coil windings. This electromagnetic
field draws the movable relay contact point away
from the fixed normally closed contact point, and
holds it against the fixed normally open contact
point. When the relay coil is de-energized, spring
pressure returns the movable contact point back
against the fixed normally closed contact point. A
resistor is connected in parallel with the relay coil in
the relay, and helps to dissipate voltage spikes and
electromagnetic interference that can be generated as
the electromagnetic field of the relay coil collapses.
The wiper on/off relay terminals are connected to
the vehicle electrical system through a connector
receptacle in the Power Distribution Center (PDC).
The inputs and outputs of the wiper on/off relay
include:
²Common Feed Terminal- The common feed
terminal (30) is connected to the common feed termi-
nal of the wiper high/low relay at all times through
the wiper on/off relay output circuit.
²Coil Ground Terminal- The coil ground termi-
nal (85) is connected to a control output of the Body
Control Module (BCM) through a front wiper on/off
relay control circuit. The BCM controls front wiper
motor operation by controlling a ground path through
this circuit.
²Coil Battery Terminal- The coil battery ter-
minal (86) receives battery current at all times from
a circuit breaker in the Junction Block (JB) through
a fused ignition switch output (run-acc) circuit.
²Normally Open Terminal- The normally open
terminal (87) receives battery current at all times
from a circuit breaker in the Junction Block (JB)
through a fused ignition switch output (run-acc) cir-
cuit, and provides battery current to the front wiper
on/off relay output circuit whenever the relay is ener-
gized.
²Normally Closed Terminal- The normally
closed terminal (87A) is connected to the wiper park
switch in the front wiper motor through the front
wiper park switch sense circuit, and is connected to
the wiper park switch whenever the relay is de-ener-
gized.
The wiper on/off relay can be diagnosed using con-
ventional diagnostic tools and methods.

REAR WASHER SYSTEM
The washer system components should be
inspected periodically, not just when washer perfor-
mance problems are experienced. This inspection
should include the following points:
(1) Check for ice or other foreign material in the
washer reservoir. If contaminated, clean and flush
the washer system. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
REAR WIPERS/WASHERS - CLEANING).
(2) Inspect the washer plumbing for pinched, leak-
ing, deteriorated, or incorrectly routed hoses and
damaged or disconnected hose fittings. Replace dam-
aged or deteriorated hoses and hose fittings. Leaking
washer hoses can sometimes be repaired by cutting
the hose at the leak and splicing it back together
using an in-line connector fitting. Similarly, sections
of deteriorated hose can be cut out and replaced by
splicing in new sections of hose using in-line connec-
tor fittings. Whenever routing a washer hose or a
wire harness containing a washer hose, it must be
routed away from hot, sharp, or moving parts. Also,
sharp bends that might pinch the washer hose must
be avoided.
REAR CHECK VALVE
DESCRIPTION
A rear washer system check valve is standard
equipment on this model (Fig. 3). The rear check
valve is located in the washer plumbing between the
rear roof header and the roof outer panel near the
rear washer nozzle. The rear check valve consists of
a molded plastic body with a round center sectionand barbed hose nipples at each end. An arrow for-
mation molded into the center section of the valve
body indicates the direction of flow through the
valve. The rear check valve cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The rear check valve prevents washer fluid from
draining out of the rear washer supply hoses back to
the washer reservoir. This drain-back would result in
a lengthy delay from when the rear washer switch is
actuated until washer fluid was dispensed through
the rear washer nozzle, because the washer pump
would have to refill the rear washer plumbing from
the reservoir to the nozzle. The check valve also pre-
vents washer fluid from siphoning through the rear
washer nozzle after the rear washer system is turned
Off.
Within the check valve body, a small check valve is
held in place against a seat by a small coiled spring
to restrict flow through the unit until the valve is
unseated by a predetermined inlet fluid pressure.
When the washer pump pressurizes and pumps
washer fluid from the reservoir through the rear
washer plumbing, the fluid pressure overrides the
spring pressure applied to the check ball within the
valve and unseats the valve, allowing washer fluid to
flow toward the rear washer nozzle. When the
washer pump stops operating, spring pressure seats
the check valve and fluid flow in either direction
within the rear washer plumbing is prevented.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove the Center High Mounted Stop Lamp
(CHMSL) unit from the rear of the roof panel. (Refer
to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERI-
OR/CENTER HIGH MOUNTED STOP LAMP UNIT
- REMOVAL).
WARNING: THE EDGES OF THE SHEET METAL
AROUND THE CENTER HIGH MOUNTED STOP
LAMP MOUNTING HOLE IN THE ROOF PANEL.
TAKE THE PROPER PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID PER-
SONAL INJURY.
(3) Reach through the CHMSL unit mounting hole
in the rear of the roof panel to access and disconnect
the rear washer hose at the barbed nipple of the rear
washer nozzle (Fig. 4).
(4) Pull the rear washer hose through the CHMSL
unit mounting hole far enough to access and discon-
nect the headliner washer hose from the barbed nip-
ple of the rear check valve.

REAR WIPERS/WASHERS (Continued)

headliner hose is glued to top of the headliner and
routed along the right roof side rail to the rear of the
vehicle. At the rear of the vehicle, the headliner hose
passes through a hole at the rear portion of the roof
rear inner header panel and is connected to the rear
check valve. From the rear check valve, there is a
short section of hose that connects the rear check
valve to the rear washer nozzle.
Washer hose is available for service only as roll
stock, which must then be cut to length. The head-
liner washer hose is integral to the headliner unit
and, if faulty or damaged, the headliner unit must be
replaced. However, the headliner hose is marked
with a white cut line on the A-pillar where the hose
should be cut and spliced with a plastic in-line con-
nector fitting to facilitate headliner removal without
the need to remove the instrument panel. (Refer to
23 - BODY/INTERIOR/HEADLINER - REMOVAL
AND INSTALLATION). The molded plastic washer
hose fittings cannot be repaired. If these fittings are
faulty or damaged, they must be replaced.
OPERATION
Washer fluid in the washer reservoir is pressurized
and fed by the washer pump/motor through the rear
washer system plumbing and fittings to the rear
washer nozzle located on the roof panel above the
rear flip-up glass opening. Whenever routing the
washer hose or a wire harness containing a washer
hose, it must be routed away from hot, sharp, or
moving parts; and, sharp bends that might pinch the
hose must be avoided.
REAR WASHER NOZZLE
DESCRIPTION
The rear washer nozzle is a fluidic-type unit con-
structed of molded plastic (Fig. 6). The nozzle is
secured by a snap fit in a dedicated mounting hole
located in the rear edge of the roof panel above the
rear flip-up glass opening and to the right of the
Center High Mounted Stop Lamp (CHMSL) unit. A
rubber gasket on the back of the nozzle seals the noz-
zle to the roof panel opening. The back of the nozzle
includes an integral alignment feature on the left
side, an integral engagement tab on the top, an inte-
gral latch feature on the bottom, and the washer
plumbing nipple which are all concealed between the
outer roof panel and the rear roof inner header. The
rear washer nozzle latch feature is a one time com-
ponent, and will be damaged if the nozzle is removed
from its mounting hole for service. The rear washer
nozzle cannot be adjusted or repaired. If faulty or
damaged, the entire nozzle unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The rear washer nozzle is designed to dispense
washer fluid into the wiper pattern area on the out-
side of the rear flip-up glass. Pressurized washer
fluid is fed to the nozzle from the washer reservoir by
the washer pump/motor through a single hose, which
is attached to a barbed nipple on the back of the rear
washer nozzle. The rear washer nozzle incorporates a
fluidic design, which causes the nozzle to emit the
pressurized washer fluid as an oscillating stream to
more effectively cover a larger area of the glass area
to be cleaned.
REMOVAL
NOTE: The rear washer nozzle latch feature is a one
time component, and will be damaged if the nozzle is
removed from its mounting hole for service. If
removed from its mounting hole for any reason, the
rear washer nozzle must be replaced with a new unit.
(1) Using a trim stick or another suitable wide
flat-bladed tool, gently pry the bottom of the rear
washer nozzle away from the roof panel until the
latch feature at the bottom of the nozzle that secures
it in the mounting hole of the roof panel snaps.
(2) Pull the rear washer nozzle out from the roof
panel far enough to access the washer hose (Fig. 7).
(3) Disconnect the washer hose from the barbed
nipple on the back of the rear washer nozzle.
(4) Discard the rear washer nozzle.

TROUBLESHOOTING WIRING PROBLEMS
When troubleshooting wiring problems there are
six steps which can aid in the procedure. The steps
are listed and explained below. Always check for non-
factory items added to the vehicle before doing any
diagnosis. If the vehicle is equipped with these items,
disconnect them to verify these add-on items are not
the cause of the problem.
(1) Verify the problem.
(2) Verify any related symptoms. Do this by per-
forming operational checks on components that are
in the same circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.
(3) Analyze the symptoms. Use the wiring dia-
grams to determine what the circuit is doing, where
the problem most likely is occurring and where the
diagnosis will continue.
(4) Isolate the problem area.
(5) Repair the problem area.
(6) Verify the proper operation. For this step,
check for proper operation of all items on the
repaired circuit. Refer to the wiring diagrams.
STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ELECTROSTATIC
DISCHARGE (ESD) SENSITIVE DEVICES
All ESD sensitive components are solid state and a
symbol (Fig. 6) is used to indicate this. When han-
dling any component with this symbol, comply with
the following procedures to reduce the possibility of
electrostatic charge build up on the body and inad-
vertent discharge into the component. If it is not
known whether the part is ESD sensitive, assume
that it is.
(1) Always touch a known good ground before han-
dling the part. This should be repeated while han-
dling the part and more frequently after sliding
across a seat, sitting down from a standing position,
or walking a distance.
(2) Avoid touching electrical terminals of the part,
unless instructed to do so by a written procedure.
(3) When using a voltmeter, be sure to connect the
ground lead first.
(4) Do not remove the part form it's protective
packing until it is time to install the part.
(5) Before removing the part from it's pakage,
ground the pakage to a known good ground on the
vehicle.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TESTING OF

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HYDRAULIC LASH
ADJUSTER
A tappet-like noise may be produced from several
items. Check the following items.
(1) Engine oil level too high or too low. This may
cause aerated oil to enter the adjusters and cause
them to be spongy.
(2) Insufficient running time after rebuilding cylin-
der head. Low speed running up to 1 hour may be
required.
(3) Turn engine off and let set for a few minutes
before restarting. Repeat this several times after
engine has reached normal operating temperature.
(4) Low oil pressure.
(5) The oil restrictor in cylinder head gasket or the
oil passage to the cylinder head is plugged with
debris.
(6) Air ingested into oil due to broken or cracked
oil pump pick up.
(7) Worn valve guides.
(8) Rocker arm ears contacting valve spring
retainer.
(9) Rocker arm loose, adjuster stuck or at maxi-
mum extension and still leaves lash in the system.
(10) Oil leak or excessive cam bore wear in cylin-
der head.
(11) Faulty lash adjuster.
²Check lash adjusters for sponginess while
installed in cylinder head and cam on camshaft at
base circle. Depress part of rocker arm over adjuster.
Normal adjusters should feel very firm. Spongy
adjusters can be bottomed out easily.
²Remove suspected lash adjusters, and replace.
