Circuit/System Description
|
The Body Control Module (BCM) controls the washer motor based on an input from the windshield wiper washer switch. The BCM monitors the washer switch through the windshield washer switch signal circuit. When the WASH switch is closed, ground is supplied to the front washer switch signal circuit. When this is seen, the BCM will command the front washer fluid pump and the low speed wipers on. When headlamp wash is equipped, the headlamps shall be sprayed with wash fluid as a result of an extended windshield wash switch activation. In order to preserve wash fluid, the feature shall only be allowed to activate if the Low or High Beam Headlamps are active. In addition, after the initial Headlamp Wash operation has been performed, additional headlamp washes shall not be performed for the next 4 Windshield Wash activations or for 48 hours, whichever occurs first.
The headlamp wash feature shall only be allowed to be activated, if the low or high beam headlamps are active as well.

for scan tool information
|
1.
|
Ignition OFF, disconnect the KR2 headlamp washer fluid pump relay in the X50A underhood fuse block.
|
|
2.
|
Test for less than 5 Ω between ground circuit terminal 85 and ground.
|
|
3.
|
If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
|
|
4.
|
Ignition ON, install a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 86 and ground.
|
|
5.
|
Using the scan tool, control the headlamp washers ONand OFF. Verify the test lamp turns on and off.
|
|
6.
|
If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.
|
|
7.
|
If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.
|
|
8.
|
Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the G16 headlamp washer fluid pump.
|
|
9.
|
Test for less than 5 Ω between the G16 headlamp washer fluid pump ground circuit terminal 2 and ground.
|
|
10.
|
If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
|
|
11.
|
Ignition ON, connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 1 and ground. Momentarily connect a 5 A fused jumper wire between the relay circuits 87 and 30. Verify the test lamp illuminates momentarily.
|
|
12.
|
If the test lamp does not illuminate momentarily, test the control circuit for an open/high resistance or a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the G16 headlamp washer fluid pump.
|
|
13.
|
If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage.
|
|
14.
|
If all circuits tests normal, replace the KR2 headlamp washer fluid pump relay.
|
Window Wiper/Washer Switch
Static Test
|
1.
|
Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S82 windshield wiper/washer switch.
|
|
2.
|
Test for less than 5 Ω between windshield wiper/washer switch terminal 2 and terminal 5 while activating the S82 windshield wiper/washer switch.
|
|
3.
|
If greater than the specified range, replace the S82 windshield wiper/washer switch.
|
Dynamic Test
|
1.
|
Ignition OFF, disconnect the KR2 headlamp washer fluid pump relay.
|
|
2.
|
Install a 30 A fused jumper wire between the relay terminals 86, 87 and 12 V. Install a jumper wire between the relay terminal 85 and ground.
|
|
3.
|
Connect a test lamp between relay terminal 30 and ground.
|
|
4.
|
Observe the test lamp turns ON and OFF by grounding the relay terminal 85 briefly several times.
|
|
5.
|
If the function does not perform as specified, replace the KR2 headlamp washer fluid pump relay.
|
Relay Test
|
1.
|
Ignition OFF, disconnect the KR2 headlamp washer fluid pump relay.
|
|
2.
|
Test for 60-200 Ω between terminals 85 and 86.
|
|
3.
|
If the resistance is not within the specified range, replace the KR2 headlamp washer fluid pump relay.
|
|
4.
|
Test for infinite resistance between the following terminals:
|
|
5.
|
If not the specified value, replace the KR2 headlamp washer fluid pump relay.
|
|
6.
|
Install a 10 A fused jumper wire between relay terminal 85 and 12 V. Install a jumper wire between relay terminal 86 and ground. Test for less than 5 Ω between terminals 30 and 87.
|
|
7.
|
If greater than the specified range, replace the KR2 headlamp washer fluid pump relay.
|
Washer Pump
Dynamic Test
|
1.
|
Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the G16 headlamp washer fluid pump.
|
|
2.
|
Install a 10 A fused jumper wire between the control terminal 1 and 12 V. Install a jumper wire between the ground terminal 2 and ground.
|
|
3.
|
Verify the G16 headlamp washer fluid pump is activated.
|
|
4.
|
If the G16 Headlamp Washer Fluid Pump does not activate , replace the G16 headlamp washer fluid pump.
|
Perform the
Diagnostic Repair Verification
after completing the diagnostic procedure.
