1. Windscreen Outside Moisture Sensor Malfunction |
B+ voltage is supplied to the windscreen outside moisture sensor. Whenever the ignition is ON, or in accessory positions, the body control module (BCM), sends the wiper/washer switch status by using a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal. When a wipe cycle is needed, the windscreen outside moisture sensor sends a PWM voltage signal to the BCM, initiating the wiper operation. The BCM commands the windscreen wiper motor wipe cycles. If a fault occurs at any time between the windscreen outside moisture sensor and BCM, the BCM will use the inputs from the indicator/multifunction switch in the delay positions to operate the windscreen wiper motor at continuous variable delay intervals.
• | Ignition ON. |
• | The system voltage is between 9–16 V. |
The BCM receives an invalid signal from the windscreen outside moisture sensor.
• | If the BCM loses communication with the windshield outside moisture sensor while the windshield outside moisture sensor was requesting single wipes, it shall fail soft the wipers operation to front wiper manual-intermittent with a fixed dwell time of 4 seconds. |
• | If the BCM loses communication with the windshield outside moisture sensor while the windshield outside moisture sensor was continuously requesting low, it shall fail soft the wipers operation to front wiper manual-low. |
• | If the BCM loses communication with the windshield outside moisture sensor while the windshield outside moisture sensor was continuously requesting high, it shall fail soft the wipers operation to front wiper manual-high. |
A current DTC clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
