INSPECTION
Rear Wiper and Washer Switch (in Combination Switch)
1) Disconnect negative cable at battery.
2) Disconnect combination switch lead wire coupler.
3) Check for continuity between terminals at each switch position
as shown below. If check result is not as specified, replace
switch.

Wiper Motor
1) TESTING WIPER MOTOR
As shown left, use a 12 V battery to connect its (+) and (±) termi-
nals to terminal ªDº and Black lead wire (2) respectively. Then
motor (1) should rotate at 35 to 45 rpm.

2) TESTING AUTOMATIC STOP ACTION
a) First, connect battery (+) terminal to terminal ªDº and battery
(±) terminal to black lead wire (2) and let the motor (1) turn.
b) Then disconnect terminal ªDº from battery and let the motor
stop.
c) Next connect terminal ªDº and terminal ªAº with a jumper wire
(3) and connect terminal ªBº to battery (+) terminal. Observe the
wiper motor turns once again, then stops at a given position.
d) Repeat these steps several times, and inspect if the motor
stops at the given position every time.
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.

REMOVAL
1) Clean both inside and outside of glass and around it.
2) Remove wiper arms and garnish.
3) Using tape, cover body surface around glass to prevent any
damage.
4) Remove rear view mirror, sunvisor, and front pillar trims (right
& left).
5) If necessary, remove instrument panel. Refer to ªINSTRU-
MENT PANELº in this section.
6) If necessary, remove head lining. Refer to ªHEAD LININGº in
this section.
7) If necessary, remove roof trim. Refer to ªROOF TRIMº in this
section.
8) Remove (or cut) windshield molding all around until windshield
edge comes out.
9) Drill hole with eyeletter through adhesive and let piano string
through it.
10) Cut adhesive all around windshield with piano string.
When using tool to cut adhesive, be careful not to cause dam-
age to windshield. Use wire to cut adhesive along lower part of
windshield.
NOTE:
Use piano string as close to glass as possible so as to pre-
vent damage to body and instrument panel.
