Step 3. Retest the system.

Check that the rear wiper operates consecutively
when the selector lever is moved to the R position
during the rear wiper operation.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

The trouble can be an intermittent

malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00

− How to

Cope with Intermittent Malfunction

P.00-5

).

NO :

Replace the ETACS-ECU.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE H-3: When the shift lever is moved to "R" position during the rear wiper
operation, the rear wiper does not operate at the continuous mode. <M/T>

CAUTION

Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the
input and output signal circuits are normal.

COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM

If the rear wiper does not operate consecutively
when the selector lever is moved to the R position
during the rear wiper operation, the input signal
circuit to the back-up lamp switch ("R" position) or
the ETACS-ECU may be defective.

POSSIBLE CAUSES

• Malfunction of the back-up lamp switch

• Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU

• Damaged harness wires and connectors
