Front Wiper Motor Circuit: Procedure
- INSPECT WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR ASSEMBLY
- Remove the windshield wiper motor assembly. Refer to COMPONENTS .
- Check low speed operation.
Connect a battery positive (+) lead to terminal 1 (+1) and a negative (-) lead to terminal 5 (E), and check that the motor operates at low speed.
OK
Motor operates at low speed.
- Check high speed operation.
Connect a battery positive (+) lead to terminal 4 (+2) and a negative (-) lead to terminal 5 (E), and check that the motor operates at high speed.
OK
Motor operates at high speed.
