Pinpoint Test G - Front Wipers Run With Switch Off
- Test front wiper/washer switch. See WIPER/WASHER SWITCH under COMPONENT TESTS . Replace multifunction switch as necessary. If switch is okay, go to next step.
- Disconnect wiper motor connector and Front Wiper/Washer Amplifier (FWWA) 6-pin connector. FWWA is located on left front strut tower. Measure resistance of Blue/Orange wire between ground and FWWA wiring harness 6-pin connector. If resistance is less than 10,000 ohms, repair short to ground in Blue/Orange wire. If resistance is 10,000 ohms or more, go to next step.
- Measure resistance of Brown/White wire between ground and FWWA wiring harness 6-pin connector. If resistance is less than 10,000 ohms, repair short to ground in Brown/White wire. If resistance is 10,000 ohms or more, go to next step.
- Measure resistance of Red wire between ground and FWWA wiring harness 6-pin connector. If resistance is less than 10,000 ohms, repair short to ground in Red wire. If resistance is 10,000 ohms or more, go to next step.
- Measure resistance of Red wire between FWWA wiring harness 6-pin connector and wiper motor wiring harness connector. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, replace FWWA. If resistance is 5 ohms or more, repair open in Red wire.
