Wiper/Washer Operation




The electronic circuit board controls all the timing and washer commands. When a wash button is pushed for more than 1 second, washer solvent is sprayed on the windshield as long as the button is held. This is accompanied by wiper activity that continues for about 6 seconds after the button is released.

Rotating the wiper switch to the LO or HI speed position closes the respective brush circuit and the wiper motor runs at that speed.
Rotating the wiper switch to the DELAY mode operates the wiper motor intermittently. The delay can be varied by rotating the switch back and forth.

For immediate wiping activity, rotate the wiper switch to the MIST position. Wiping will continue as long as the switch is held.
The wiper motor is protected by an automatic reset type circuit breaker located in the brush holder circuit. A 25 amp WIPER fuse protects the circuit wiring.
