Windshield Wipers/Washers System Description

The windshield wiper system includes the following components:
^ The wiper arm
^ The wiper motor
^ The wiper transmission (1)
^ The wiper blade




The wiper/washer switch (3) controls the wiper system. The switch is located on the right side of the steering column. Intermittent wipers are optional equipment on all of the models. The wiper circuit ensures that the wiper blades will automatically return to their final rest position when the wiper switch is OFF.

Interval (pulse) Operation
Move the wiper/washer switch to the INT position, in order to operate the wiper system in the Intermittent (pulse) mode. The cycle speed is variable. Turn the ring on the wiper/washer switch from S (slow cycling) to F (fast cycling) in order to adjust the cycle speed. A capacitor inside the intermittent controller charges and discharges. The capacitor controls the intermittent wiper operation.
