B3922



DTC B3922

Circuit Description

The body control module (BCM) monitors the windshield wiper switch low signal circuit. When the wiper switch is placed in a low position, a signal is applied to the BCM through the windshield wiper switch low signal circuit. The BCM then applies a battery positive voltage to the WIPER relay control circuit which energizes the WIPER relay, allowing the battery positive voltage from WIPER/WS fuse through the switched side of the WIPER relay to the windshield wiper motor.
