Pinpoint Test
- CHECK THE REAR WIPER OFF SWITCH (R_WIPE_OFF_SW) PID
- Ignition ON.
- Using a scan tool, view SCCM PID R_WIPE_OFF_SW.
- Make sure the wiper/washer switch is in the OFF position.
Is the PID R_WIPE_OFF_SW status ON (indicating the wiper/washer switch is in the OFF position)?
- Yes: GO to 2 .
- No: INSTALL a new wiper/washer switch. REFER to Wiper and Washer Switch . TEST the system for normal operation.
If the concern is still present, INSTALL a new SCCM. REFER to STEERING COLUMN CONTROL MODULE (SCCM) .
- CHECK THE REAR WINDOW WIPER OPERATION WITH THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR DISCONNECTED
- Ignition OFF.
- Disconnect: Windshield Wiper Motor.
- Ignition ON.
- Verify the rear window wiper operation.
Is the rear window wiper still operating?
- Yes: GO to 3 .
- No: GO to 4.
- CHECK THE REAR WINDOW WIPER COMMAND CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
- Ignition OFF.
- Disconnect: Rear Window Wiper Motor.
- Measure:
Windshield Wiper Motor Ground C125 Chassis Ground Pin Circuit Measurement Pin Circuit 11 CRW02 (GY/BU) - -
Is the resistance greater than 10, 000 ohms?
- Yes: GO to 5.
- No: REPAIR the circuit.
- CHECK FOR CORRECT WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR OPERATION
- Ignition OFF.
- Inspect the windshield wiper motor connector.
- Repair:
- corrosion (replace connector or terminals - clean module pins)
- damaged or bent pins - replace terminals/pins
- pushed-out pins - replace pins as necessary
- Reconnect the windshield wiper motor connector. Make sure it seats and latches correctly.
- Operate the system and verify the concern is still present.
Is the concern still present?
- Yes: CHECK OASIS for any applicable TSBs . If a TSB exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW the TSB instructions. If no TSBs address this concern, INSTALL a new windshield wiper motor. REFER to Wiper Motor - Windshield .
- No: The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by module connections. ADDRESS the root cause of any connector or pin issues.
