Motor Will Not Run In Any Switch Position

  1. Check fuse 5, in the Junction Block and fuse M in the Power Distribution Center and. Refer to WIPER/WASHER for pin call outs.
    1. If fuse(s) are good, go to Step 2.
    2. If fuse(s) are defective replace, and check motor operation in all switch positions.
    3. If motor is still inoperative and the fuse does not blow, go to Step 2.
    4. If replacement fuse blows, go to Step  11 .
  2. Disconnect motor wire harness connector.
  3. Check the wiper motor low speed. Using two jumper wires, connect one jumper wire between the battery positive jump start terminal and Pin 2 on the wiper motor connector. Connect the other jumper wire to ground and Pin 5 on the wiper motor connector. Check the wiper motor high speed, connect the positive jumper wire to Pin 1 on the wiper motor connector. Connect the negative jumper wire to Pin 5 on the wiper motor connector.
    1. If motor runs, go to Step 4.
    2. If motor does not run, high or low speed replace the wiper motor.
  4. Using an ohmmeter, check for good ground at Pin 5 of the wiper motor wire harness connector. If not OK, repair the ground circuit as necessary. If OK, go to Step 5.
  5. Place the wiper switch in the ON position. Using a voltmeter, check for battery voltage at terminal D and A of the intermittent wiper relay in the Power Distribution Center. If no voltage check fuse M. If OK, go to Step 6. If not OK, repair as necessary.
  6. Using an ohmmeter, check from terminal D of the HI-LO wiper relay to Pin 1 of the motor wire connector for continuity. Check from terminal E of the HI-LO wiper relay to Pin 2 of the motor wire connector for continuity. If OK, go to Step 7. If not repair as necessary.
  7. Using an ohmmeter, check for continuity between the HI-LO wiper relay and the intermittent wiper relay. Check from terminal B of the HI- LO wiper relay to terminal B of the intermittent wiper relay. If OK, check for faulty relays and go to Step 8. If not repair as necessary.
  8. Disconnect the C3 bone 12-way connector from the BCM.
  9. Using an ohmmeter, check for continuity from terminal 4 of the BCM C3 24-way, black connector to the terminal C of the intermittent wiper relay. If OK, go to Step 10. If not repair as necessary.
  10. Using a voltmeter, connect positive lead to terminal 8 of the BCM C2 black 24-way connector and negative lead to ground. Turn ignition switch to the ON position. Slowly move, the wiper switch from OFF position through each position to HIGH.
    1. If voltage increases from zero to approximately 10 volts in the HIGH position, replace BCM. If no voltage, go to Step b.
    2. Using an ohmmeter, check for continuity from terminal 3 of wiper switch connector to terminal 8 of the BCM C2 black 24-way connector. If no continuity, repair circuit. If OK, go to Step c.
    3. Using a voltmeter, connect positive lead to terminal 1 of the wiper switch connector. If ignition voltage is present, replace the wiper switch. If no voltage, check continuity from fuse 5 to terminal 1 of the wiper switch connector. Repair circuit as necessary.
  11. Disconnect motor connector and replace fuse 5 from the Junction Block.
    1. If fuse does not blow, go to Step  2 .
    2. If fuse blows, wiper control circuit is at fault, repair as necessary, refer to WIPER/WASHER .
