Circuit/System Description

The windshield washer function is controlled by the body control module (BCM). When the washer switch is pressed, ground is applied through the switch contacts and the signal circuit to the BCM indicating the wash request. The BCM then applies ground through the control circuit to the coil side of the FRT WASH relay energizing the relay. With the relay energized, battery voltage is applied through the switch contacts of the relay, the FRT WASH fuse and the control circuit to the windshield washer fluid pump.
