Wiper/Washer Systems: Description
WARNING:
Vehicles are equipped with air bag supplemental restraint system. Before attempting ANY repairs involving steering column, instrument panel or related components, see SERVICE PRECAUTIONS and DISABLING & ACTIVATING AIR BAG SYSTEM in appropriate AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEMS article.
Systems use a standard 2-speed wiper motor for INT, LO and HI speed wiper operation. Most 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.
Passport, Rodeo, Rodeo Sport and Trooper have an optional rear wiper/washer system. Wiper and washer controls for rear wiper/washer are mounted on dash panel.
