3. CAUTIONS ON RAIN SENSOR

When the wiper switch is in the AUTO position, the wiper will operate for 1 cycle if the initial engine

start is made. This may cause the wiper blades to wear prematurely. Therefore, other than rainy days,

set the switch to the OFF position. Especially during the winter time, check if the wiper blades are not

frozen to the windshield.

Operating the wiper with the blades frozen can damage the wiper motor.

If you operate the wipers when the windshield is dry without spraying washer fluid, the windshield can

be scratched and the wiper blades can wear prematurely. Use the wiper with the washer fluid when

the windshield is dry.

When it does not rain, turn the wiper switch to the OFF position.

Turn the wiper switch to the OFF position before any car wash to avoid unwanted operation of the

wipers.

When cleaning the windshield over the sensor with damp clothes, the wiper may operate suddenly. It

could cause serious injury. Make sure to place the wiper switch to the OFF position and ignition

switch OFF when not in use.

Irregular operation (abrupt operation)

▶

Check if the sensor is off the position.

Check if the rain sensor cover is securely installed.

Check if the customer is familiar to how to control the wiper sensitivity.

Check if the wiper sensitivity control is set to the FAST side (step 5).

Check the wiper blade for wear.

If the wiper blade cannot wipe the glass uniformly and clearly, it may cause the rain sensor to work

irregularly. Therefore, in this case, replace the wiper blade with a new one.

1. OVERVIEW

The wiper & rain sensor system consists of the multifunction wiper switch, windshield wiper motor and

linkage, wiper arm and blade, rain sensor, wiper relay (LO/HI) and washer tank. The rain sensor does

not directly operate the rain sensing wiper and it sends only the data of the rainfall to the STICS. The

basic operation of the wiper and washer is controlled by the STICS according to the signal regarding the

multifunction switch operation modes (MIST, AUTO, LO/HI, washer, sensitivity adjustment).

Layout

▶

Windshield wiper motor & linkage

When the driver operates the switch so that
the wiper motor is activated, the linkage
converts the rotary motion to reciprocating
motion and transfers it to the wiper arm.

Windshield wiper arm & blade

It receives the power from the wiper linkage
and does a reciprocating motion (left to right).

Washer nozzle

Installed on both sides of the cowl grille
assembly (one on each side). Sprays washer
fluid in fan-shape to cover the windshield
area as much as possible.

Washer reservoir tank

Tank that supplies washer fluid to front
washer system.
