Normal Operation
During normal operation, the windshield wiper motor receives voltage through Battery Junction Box (BJB) fuse 9 (30A), circuit SBB09 (RD) and through Smart Junction Box (SJB) fuse 45 (5A), circuit CBP45 (YE) when the ignition switch is in the RUN or ACC positions. Ground is provided to the windshield wiper motor through circuits GD129 (BK/YE) and GD123 (BK/GY). The internal run/park and internal high/low relays are contained in the wiper motor electronics. Mode of operation is dependent on the signal(s) received from the multifunction switch. When the correct input is received from the multifunction switch, the windshield wiper motor activates the washer pump by providing power through circuit CRW14 (BU/WH). Ground is provided to the washer pump through circuit GD123 (BK/GY).
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Multifunction switch
- Washer pump
- Windshield wiper motor
