connected to groundthrough thewiper motor. Wiper motor operates in "LO" or "HI" speed.
Park position
When the wiper & washer switch is turned to "OFF" position from any positions, the wipers will complete
"PARK" position. In the "OFF" position of the wiper & washer switch, battery voltage is applied to the wiper
motor terminal C(G) of D-02 through G wire, INT relay, and W wire. The wiper motor continues to run until the
"PARK" position, in which battery voltage is closed through open between wiper motor terminal D(W) and
F(L/W) of D-02. The wiper motor stops in "PARK" position.
INT position
With the wiper & washer switch in "INT" position, battery voltage is applied to INT relay through the L wire. This
triggers the timer circuit and shortly energizes the relay. The INT relay routes GND through the wiper & washer
switch terminal C(B) of D-01 and battery voltage is applied to the wiper motor terminal C(G) of D-02 long
enough to pull the wiper motor out of the "PARK" position. Battery voltage also is applied to the wiper motor
terminal C of D-02 through L and L/W wires, INT relay, and G wire. The wiper motor stops when the wipers
return to their "PARK" position. When the timer circuit times out, it again energizes the momentarily, repeating
the wiper cycle. Rotating the wiper & washer switch can vary the timer circuit's period.
Front washer operation
When the washer switch is pulled towards the driver, battery voltage is applied to the washer motor terminal
B(LG/R) of D-03 through washer switch and LG/R wire, which runs washer motor. The washer switch also
applies battery voltage to thewiper motor terminal C of D-02 through G wire. The wiper and washer motors run
until the washer switch released.
Rear wiper & washer operation
When the ignition switch is turned to "ON" or "START" position, battery voltage is applied to Rear wiper motor
and rear washer motor. When the rear wiper & washer switch is pressed the other side of rear wiper motor and
rear washer motor is grounded through P and BR wires, rear wiper & washer switch, and B wire. The rear wiper
and washer motors run until the rear wiper & washer switch is released. When the rear wiper switch is pressed,
wiper motor operates.
