Wiper/Washer Systems: Description
WARNING:
Deactivate air bag system before performing any service operation. On Trooper see AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEM

Systems use a standard 2-speed wiper motor for LO and HI speed wiper operation. Systems also have an adjustable intermittent function, which can delay wiper action between cycles. Front wiper and washer functions are controlled by wiper/washer switch, which is part of combination switch. When wiper/washer switch is turned off, wiper motor internal ground will operate wipers until reaching PARK position.
Trooper and SLX have an optional rear window wiper/washer system. Trooper and SLX may also have an optional headlight wiper/washer system. Wiper and washer controls for rear and headlight systems are mounted on dash panel.
