• BCM transmits the front wiper request signal (INT) to IPDM E/R with CAN communication according to the
front wiper INT operation condition and the intermittent operation delay interval judged value.
Front wiper INT operating condition- Ignition switch ON
- Front wiper switch INT
Intermittent operation delay interval judgment- BCM calculates the intermittent operation delay inte rval from the vehicle speed signal received from the
wiper dial position and the combination meter with CAN communication.
• IPDM E/R turns the integrated front wiper relay ON so that the front wiper is operated only once according to the front wiper request signal (INT).
• BCM detects stop position/except st op position of the front wiper motor according to the front wiper stop
position signal received from IP DM E/R with CAN communication.
• BCM transmits the front wiper request signal (INT) again after the intermittent operation delay interval after the front wiper motor is stopped.
FRONT WIPER AUTO STOP OPERATION
• BCM stops transmitting the front wiper request si gnal when the front wiper switch is turned OFF.
• IPDM E/R detects the front wiper auto stop signal fr om the front wiper motor and detects the front wiper
motor position (stop positi on/except stop position).

FRONT WIPER AND WASHER SYSTEM
• When the front wiper request signal is stopped, IPDM E/R turns ON the front wiper relay until the front wiper
motor returns to the stop position.
NOTE:
• BCM stops the transmitting of the front wiper request signal when the ignition switch is OFF.
• IPDM E/R turns the front wiper relay OFF when the ignition switch is OFF.
FRONT WIPER OPERATION LINKED WITH WASHER
• BCM transmits the front wiper request signal (LO) to IPDM E/R with CAN communication according to the
washer linked operating condition of the front wiper.
• BCM transmits the front wiper request signal (LO) so that the front wiper operates approximately 3 times when the front washer s witch OFF is detected.
Washer linked operating condition of front wiper
- Ignition switch ON
- Front washer switch ON (0.4 second or more)
• IPDM E/R turns ON the integrated front wiper rela y according to the front wiper request signal (LO).
• The front and rear washer motor is grounded through the combination switch with the front washer switch
ON.
FRONT WIPER DROP WIPE OPERATION
• BCM controls the front wiper to operate once accordi ng to the conditions of front wiper drop wipe operation.
Front wiper drop wipe operating condition- Ignition switch ON
- Front wiper switch OFF
- Front washer switch OFF
• BCM transmits the front wiper request signal (LO) to IPDM E/R with CAN communication so that the front
wiper operate once three seconds after front wiper operation linked with washer.
• IPDM E/R turns ON the integrated front wiper rela y according to the front wiper request signal (LO).
FRONT WIPER FAIL−SAFE OPERATION
• IPDM E/R performs the fail-safe function when the front wiper auto stop circuit is malfunctioning. Refer to
WW-64, "
FailSafe".

OUTLINE
The rear wiper is controlled by each function of BCM.
Control by BCM• Combination switch reading function
• Rear wiper control function
REAR WIPER BASIC OPERATION
• BCM detects the combination switch condition by the combination switch reading function.
• BCM controls the rear wiper to start or stop.
REAR WIPER ON OPERATION
• BCM supplies power to the rear wiper motor ac cording to the rear wiper ON operating condition.
Rear wiper ON operating condition
- Ignition switch ON
- Rear wiper switch ON
REAR WIPER INT OPERATION
• BCM supplies power to the rear wiper motor according to the INT operating condition.
Rear wiper INT operating condition- Ignition switch ON
- Rear wiper switch INT
• BCM controls the rear wiper to operate once.
• BCM detects the rear wiper motor stopping position.
• BCM supplies power to the rear wiper motor after an intermittent from the stop of the rear wiper motor.

• BCM reads an auto stop signal from the rear wiper motor to detect a rear wiper motor position.
• When the rear wiper motor is at other than the stopping position, BCM continues to supply power to the rear
wiper motor until it returns to the stopping position.
NOTE:
BCM stops supplying power to the rear wiper motor when the ignition switch is turned OFF.
REAR WIPER OPERATION LINKED WITH WASHER
• BCM supplies power to the rear wiper motor according to the washer linked operating condition of rear
wiper. When the rear washer switch is turned OFF, BC M controls rear wiper to operate approximately three
times.
Washer linked operating condition of rear wiper- Ignition switch ON
- Rear washer switch ON (0.4 second or more)
• Front and rear washer motor becomes grounded through the combination switch when the rear washer switch is turned ON.
REAR WIPER DROP WIPE OPERATION
• BCM controls the rear wiper to operate once acco rding to the rear wiper drop wipe operating condition.
Rear wiper drop wipe operating condition
- Ignition switch ON
- Rear wiper switch OFF
- Rear washer switch OFF
• BCM controls the rear wiper so that it operates onc e time approximately three seconds later after the washer
interlocking operation of the rear wiper.
REAR WIPER FAIL −SAFE OPERATION
BCM performs the fail-safe function when the rear wiper auto stop circuit is malfunctioning. Refer to BCS-50,
"FailSafe".
