REAR WIPER AND WASHER SYSTEMPFP:28710
Components Parts and Harness Connector LocationEKS007FO
System DescriptionEKS007FP

The wiper switch (combination switch) is composed of a combination of 5 output terminals and 5 input ter-
minals. Terminal combination status is read by the BCM (body control module) when switch is turned ON.

The BCM controls rear wiper ON and INT (intermittent) operation.
Power is supplied at all times

through 50A fusible link (letter f , located in the fuse and fusible link box)

to BCM terminal 70.
With the ignition switch in ON or START position, power is supplied at all times

through 10A fuse (No. 9, located in the fuse block J/B)

to combination switch terminal 14, and

through 10A fuse (No. 59, located in the fuse and relay box)

to BCM terminal 38.
Ground is supplied

to BCM terminal 67 and

to combination switch terminal 12

through grounds M57, M61 and M79.
REAR WIPER OPERATION
When the ignition switch is in the ON or START position, and the rear wiper switch is in the ON position, the
BCM detects a rear wiper ON request through the combination switch (wiper switch) reading function.
The BCM will first check the status of the glass hatch ajar switch before supplying power to the rear wiper
motor. If the glass hatch ajar switch is closed (ground) the BCM will not turn on the rear wiper motor. If the
glass hatch ajar switch is open (not grounded) the BCM will control the rear wiper motor as follows.
The BCM controls rear wiper motor operation by switching direction of current flow between the two rear wiper
motor output circuits.

through BCM terminal 67

through grounds M57, M61 and M79.
With output circuit 1 power and ground supplied, the rear wiper motor operates in a counterclockwise sweep
direction until auto stop switch 1 closes (full sweep position). Auto stop switch 1 supplies ground

to BCM terminal 44

through rear wiper motor terminal 2

through rear wiper motor terminal 5

through grounds B117 and B132.
When the BCM receives this ground signal it turns off output circuit 1 and turns on output circuit 2.
Power is supplied to output circuit 2 for reverse operation (clockwise sweep),

through BCM terminal 54

to rear wiper motor terminal 6.
Ground is supplied

to rear wiper motor terminal 4

through BCM terminal 55

through BCM terminal 67

through grounds M57, M61 and M79.
With output circuit 2 power and ground supplied the rear wiper motor operates in a clockwise sweep direction
until auto stop switch 2 closes (full sweep position). Auto stop switch 2 supplies ground

to BCM terminal 26

through rear wiper motor terminal 1

through rear wiper motor terminal 3

through grounds B117 and B132.
When the BCM receives this ground signal it turns off output circuit 2 and starts the timing function of 7 sec-
onds. After approximately 7 seconds the BCM turns on output circuit 1. This process repeats until the rear
wiper switch or ignition switch is turned off.
AUTO STOP OPERATION
When the rear wiper switch is turned off, the BCM will continue the cycle of output circuit 1 or output circuit 2
until auto stop switch 1 and auto stop switch 2 are both in the closed position. When the BCM receives ground
signals from auto stop switch 1 and auto stop switch 2 simultaneously, output circuit 1 and output circuit 2 are
both turned off.
REAR WASHER OPERATION
When the ignition switch is in the ON or START position, and the front and rear washer switches are OFF, the
front and rear washer motor is supplied power

through 10A fuse [No. 9, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

through combination switch (wiper switch) terminal 14

through combination switch (wiper switch) terminal 11

to front and rear washer motor terminal 2, and

through combination switch (wiper switch) terminal 13

to front and rear washer motor terminal 1.
When the rear wiper switch is in rear washer position, the BCM detects a rear washer signal by BCM wiper
switch reading function. Combination switch ground is supplied

to front and rear washer motor terminal 1

through combination switch (wiper switch) terminal 13

through combination switch (wiper switch) terminal 12

through grounds M57, M61 and M79.
With ground supplied, the front and rear washer motor is operated in the rear direction.
When the BCM detects that the rear washer motor has operated for 0.4 seconds or longer, BCM operates the
rear wiper motor.
When the BCM detects that the rear washer switch is in OFF, the rear wiper motor cycles approximately 3
times and then stops.

How to Proceed With Trouble DiagnosisEKS007FS
1. Confirm the symptoms and customer complaint.
2. Understand operation description and function description. Refer to WW-33, "
System Description" .
3. Perform the Preliminary Check. Refer to WW-41, "
Preliminary Inspection" .
4. Check symptom and repair or replace the cause of malfunction.
5. Does the rear wiper operate normally? If YES: GO TO 6. If NO: GO TO 4.
6. Inspection End.
