WIPERS AND WASHERS
84-8 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Description
General
All markets have a common wiper system with headlamp powerwash as an option.
The wipers system comprises two front wipers and one rear wiper which are powered by electric motors. A washer
reservoir is located in the front left hand wheel arch and is fitted with two electric pumps. Each pump supplies washer
fluid to either the front or rear screens. On certain models, a third pump can be fitted to operate a headlamp power
wash function. Operation of the front and rear wipers and washers is controlled by the driver using switches located
on a steering column stalk and push button switches on the fascia.
Control of the wipers and washers is achieved by the following components:
lBCU.
lIDM.
lFront wiper relay.
lFront wash/ wipe switch.
lVariable delay switch.
lFront wiper motor assembly.
lFront washer pump motor.
lRear wiper relay.
lRear wiper switch.
lRear washer switch.
lRear wiper motor.
lRear washer pump motor.
Both the Body Control Unit (BCU) and the Intelligent Driver Module (IDM) control the wiper system. The BCU controls
the time delay function of the wiper system and is located below and behind the passenger glovebox. During engine
cranking the BCU prevents wiper functions. Two relays are located in the passenger compartment fusebox. The
relays control the delay operation of the front and rear wipers. The relays are an integral part of the fusebox and
cannot be renewed separately.
Power for the wiper system is supplied by the IDM, which is integral with the passenger fusebox and cannot be
renewed as a component. A serial communication link allows communication between the IDM and the BCU.
The system has diagnostic capabilities through TestBook.
Front wipers
The two front windscreen wipers are operated by a linkage assembly and an electric motor located under the plenum
grill below the windscreen. The linkage and motor assembly is handed for left and right hand drive vehicles. The motor
is an integral part of the linkage and cannot be replaced separately.
The linkage comprises a pressed steel mounting plate which provides for the attachment of a wheel box at each end.
The mounting plate is secured to the bulkhead with flanged nuts which attach to a stud plate located behind the
bulkhead. A link arm is attached to each wheel box by a short link and secured with circlips. The link arm has an
attachment hole centrally located along its length for the electric motor drive link.
The electric motor is mounted in a recess in the bulkhead below a sealed cover plate. The drive spindle of the motor
protrudes through the cover plate and is fitted with a link. The link is attached to a tapered spline on the motor spindle
and is secured with a lock washer and nut. The opposite end of the link is attached to the central attachment point on
the link arm and secured with a circlip.
Each wheel box has a taper splined shaft which allows for the attachment of the wiper arm which is secured with a
washer and nut. The shaft of each wheel box is passed through a rubber sealed aperture in the plenum. The wiper
arm attachment to the splined shaft has a pivot to which the remainder of the arm is attached. The two parts of the
arm are connected by a spring which controls the pressure of the blade on the screen to a predetermined amount.

WIPERS AND WASHERS
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 84-11
The dc motor contains two permanent magnets, three brushes and a park switch. The smaller third brush is utilised
for high-speed operation. Attached to the brush pack are 3 capacitors, which minimise radio interference during wiper
operation. A thermal trip switch attached to the brush plate prevents thermal overload of the motor.
The motor incorporates a worm drive gear unit to transfer the rotary motion into a linear motion of the wiper linkage
assembly.
The front wiper motor receives battery voltage from fuse 19 of the passenger compartment fuse box. For low-speed
operation, including intermittent variable delay operation, the battery voltage to move the wiper motor from the park
position passes through the front wiper relay. When the park switch moves to the closed when operating position,
fuse 19 of the passenger compartment fuse box provides battery voltage directly to the wiper motor.
For high-speed operation, including flick wipe, fuse 19 in the passenger compartment fuse box provides the battery
voltage to move the wiper motor from the park position through the front wash/ wipe switch to the front wiper motor.
To achieve high-speed wiper operation, power is supplied to a third brush that provides a closer distance between the
motor poles. Because the poles of the motor are closer together, the motor operates faster.
Rear wiper
The rear wiper is driven directly from an electric motor located inside the tail door. The motor is mounted inside the
tail door with two bolts, lock washers and washers. The motor mounting brackets have rubber inserts to prevent motor
operating noise being transferred to the door structure. The motor spindle is fitted with a seal and protrudes through
a hole in the tail door outer skin panel. The motor spindle is secured to the tail door with a washer and nut.
The motor output spindle has a taper splined shaft which allows for the attachment of the wiper arm which is secured
with a nut. The wiper arm attachment to the splined shaft has a pivot to which the remainder of the arm is attached.
The two parts of the arm are connected by a spring which controls the pressure of the blade on the window to a
predetermined amount.
The wiper blade is attached to the wiper arms with a clip which allows the blade to pivot. The wiper blade comprises
of a number of levers and yokes to which the rubber wiper is attached. The levers and yokes ensure that the pressure
applied by the arm spring is evenly distributed along the full length of the blade. The rubber wiper is held in the yokes
by a pair of stainless steel strips which also contribute to the even distribution of spring pressure along the blade.
Rear wiper switch
The rear wiper switch is a latching pushbutton switch and is located on the right hand side of the instrument pack.
Activating the rear wiper switch provides an earth signal to the BCU. The BCU signals the IDM to energise the rear
wiper relay, which provides battery voltage to the rear wiper motor.
