< SYSTEM DESCRIPTION >
SYSTEM
IPDM E/R detects front wiper stop position by a front wiper stop position signal.
When a front wiper stop position signal is in the conditi ons listed below, IPDM E/R stops power supply to wiper
after repeating a front wiper 10 seconds activation and 20 seconds stop five times.
NOTE:
This operation status can be confirmed on the IPDM E/ R “Data Monitor” that displays “BLOCK” for the item
“WIP PROT” while the wiper is stopped.
BCM
BCM detects the rain sensor serial link error and the light & rain sensor malfunction.
BCM controls the following fail-safe when light & rain sensor has a malfunction.
Fail-safe Control
 Front wiper control
- Front wiper switch AUTO and sensing rain drop: The c ondition just before the activation of fail-safe is main-
tained until the front wiper switch is turned OFF.
- Front wiper switch AUTO and not sensing rain drop: Front wiper is LO operation until the front wiper switch is
turned off.

Front wiper  The status just before activation of fail-safe control is maintained until the ignition switch
is turned OFF while the front wiper is operating at LO or HI speed.
 The wiper is operated at LO speed until the ignition switch is turned OFF if the fail-safe
control is activated while the front wiper is set in the AUTO mode and the front wiper
motor is operating.

Component Function CheckINFOID:0000000006300475
1.CHECK FRONT WIPER AUTO OPERATION
1. Clean light & rain sensor detection area of windshield fully.
2. When the front wiper switch is turned to AUTO pos ition, front wiper operates once regardless of a rainy
condition.
Is front wiper (AUTO) operation normally?
YES >> Light & rain sensor circuit is normal.
NO >> Refer to WW-40, "
Diagnosis Procedure".
Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000006300476
1.CHECK LIGHT & RAIN SENSOR FUSE
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Check that the light & rain sensor 10A fuse (#6) is not fusing.
Is the fuse fusing?
YES >> Replace the fuse after repairing the applicable circuit.
NO >> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK LIGHT & RAIN SENSOR POWER SUPPLY
1. Disconnect light & rain sensor connector.
2. Check voltage between light & rain sensor harness connector and ground.
Is the measurement value normal?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> Repair or replace harness.
3.CHECK LIGHT & RAIN SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT
Check continuity between light & ra in sensor harness connector and ground.
Does continuity exist?
YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> Repair or replace harness.
4.CHECK LIGHT & RAIN SENSOR SIGNAL
1. Connect light & rain sensor connector.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Check signal between BCM harness connector and ground with oscilloscope.
