Wipers - Rear Wiper Operation

SOURCE: Subaru Tech Tips

TITLE: Rear Wiper Operation

APPLIES TO: Legacy

SERVICE TIP:






The symptom is the rear wiper will not complete its cycle when the switch is turned to the 'OFF' position. The wiper stops immediately, regardless of its position on the glass. The cause, as you can see in the attached photo, is either a pulled wire from the connector, or in one other case the pin was pushed out of the connector. This connector is located in the lower RH 'D' pillar, and can be accessed at the same location as the rear combination light.
