STEP 2. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list.
Check the input signal related to the windshield wiper opera-
tion.

• Ignition switch: ACC

• Operate the windshield wiper switch at each switch posi-

tion.

OK: Normal condition is displayed.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Troubleshoot the ETACS-ECU. Refer to ETACS,

Diagnosis - Inspection Procedure 12 "ETACS-ECU
does not receive any signal from the column switch
signal."

P.54A-639

.

STEP 3. Check that the windshield wipers work.
Check that the windshield wipers work at high speed and the
mist mode.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Go to Step 10.

STEP 4. Check windshield wiper motor connector A-06 for
loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals
pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is windshield wiper motor connector A-06 in good

condition?
YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer

to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

STEP 5. Check the windshield wiper motor.
(1) Disconnect windshield wiper motor connector A-06.
(2) Connect a battery to the windshield wiper motor as shown.

Then check if the windshield wiper motor operates normally
at high and low speeds.

Q: Does the windshield wiper motor operate normally?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Replace the windshield wiper motor. Verify that the

windshield wiper operates normally when the
windshield wiper switch is moved to each position.

STEP 6. Measure the voltage at windshield wiper motor
connector A-06
(1) Disconnect the connector, and measure the voltage at the

wiring harness side.

(2) Ignition switch: ACC
(3) windshield wiper switch: LO
(4) Measure the voltage between A-06 windshield wiper motor

connector terminal No. 3 and body ground.

OK: Battery voltage

Q: Is the measured voltage approximately 12 volts (battery

positive voltage)?
YES : Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00

− How

to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points -
How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction

P.00-15

).

NO : Go to Step 7.

STEP 7. Check ETACS-ECU connector C-304 for loose,
corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back
in the connector.
Q: Is ETACS-ECU connector C-304 in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 8.

STEP 8. Check the wiring harness between windshield
wiper motor connector A-06 (terminals 1) and ETACS-ECU
connector C-304 (terminals 6).
Q: Is the wiring harness between windshield wiper motor

connector A-06 (terminals 1) and ETACS-ECU connector
C-304 (terminals 6) in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 9.
NO : The wiring harness may be damaged or the

connector(s) may have loose, corroded or damaged
terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Repair the wiring harness as necessary. Verify that
the windshield wiper operates normally when the
windshield wiper switch is moved to each position.

STEP 9. Retest the system.
Check that the windshield wipers work normally by moving the
switch to each position.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00

− How

to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points -
How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction

P.00-15

).

NO : Replace the ETACS-ECU.

STEP 10. Check the A-06 windshield wiper motor
connector
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 11.
NO : Repair the connector concerned.

STEP 11. Check the windshield wiper motor.
