WIPER AND WASHER SYSTEM

DESCRIPTION

The component parts of this system and their functions are described in the following table.

Parts Name

Function

Wiper Switch

This switch changes the current from the wiper motor in order to operate the wiper motor
at different speeds.
It also has a built–in variable resistor which is used to adjust the interval for intermittent
operation.

Wiper Relay

This relay turns the current to the wiper motor ON and OFF at intervals and operates the
wipers continuously when the washer switch is ON.

Wiper Motor

Switching of the current at the wiper switch and wiper relay operates the motor at each speed
(HI, LO) and at intervals (INT), thus moving the wiper arms and blades.

Washer Switch

By grounding current from the washer motor, this switch operates the washer motor.

Washer Motor

A pump in this motor pumps washer fluid and sprays it out from the washer nozzles.
