Wiper motor to wheel ASSY attaching nut
22 - 29 N·m (2.2 - 3.0 kg-m, 16 - 22 ft-Ib)
Wiper motor ASSY fixing bolts
4.4 - 7.4 N·m (0.45 - 0.75 kg-m, 3.3 - 5.4 ft-Ib)
Wiper arm fixing bolts
10 - 18 N'm (1.0 - 1.8 kg-m, 7 - 13 ft-Ib)
Washer tank attaching nuts
3 - 6 N·m (0.3 - 0.6 kg-m, 2.2 - 4.3 ft-Ib)
2) . After installation, make sure that the wiper and washer

Wiper Intermittent Control
System
A microcomputer is used in the windshield wiper intermittent
control circuit to provide a car-speed-sensing function.
The higher the car speed, the more rain on the windshield.
When the wiper switch is set to the INT position, the control
circuit automatically changes the time interval preset by the
intermittent control switch in response to car speed. In other
words, when the switch is in the INT position, the wiper
operates for one cycle and then stops. If speed increases to
20 km/h (12 MPH) before the next wiper cycle (during the
resting time), the wiper will complete another cycle during
that time.
