Component Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Cadillac SRX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Windshield Wiper/Washer Switch
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S82 Windshield Wiper/Washer Switch.
- Test for infinite resistance between the signal terminal 4 and the low reference terminal 2 with the rear window washer switch in the open position.
- If less than infinite resistance
Replace the S82 Windshield Wiper/Washer Switch.
- If infinite resistance
- If less than infinite resistance
- Verify the resistance reading is within the range specified below between the signal circuit terminal 4 and the low reference circuit terminal 2 by cycling the switch between Rear Wiper position and Rear Washers position.
- Rear Wiper : 624-644Ω
- Rear Wiper Sweep : 1.99-2.01kΩ
- Rear Washer : 6.11-6.13kΩ
- If not within range specified
Replace the S82 Windshield Wiper/Washer Switch.
- If within range specified
- All OK
Relay Test
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the KR7 Rear Wiper Relay.
- Test for 60-200 Ω between terminals 85 and 86.
- If less than 60 or greater than 200
Replace the KR7 Rear Wiper Relay.
- If between 60-200 Ω
- If less than 60 or greater than 200
- Test for infinite resistance between the terminals listed below:
- 30 and 86
- 30 and 87
- 30 and 85
- 85 and 87
- If less than infinite resistance
Replace the KR7 Rear Wiper Relay.
- If infinite resistance
- Install a 10 A fused jumper wire between relay terminal 85 and 12 V. Install a jumper wire between relay terminal 86 and ground.
- Test for less than 10 Ω between terminals 30 and 87.
- If 10 Ω or greater
Replace the KR7 Rear Wiper Relay.
- If less than 10 Ω
- If 10 Ω or greater
- All OK.
