SERVICE INFORMATION
The vehicles listed above may be equipped with the Rain-Sensing Auto Wiper system.
^
A rain sensor is located on the windshield, if equipped.
^
With this system, when the wiper lever is pushed down to the intermittent (INT) position, the wipers will operate when the rain sensor detects rain.
NOTE:
The wipers may operate unexpectedly when dirt, fingerprints, oil film, or insects are located on or around the sensor, or when exhaust gas or moisture
affect the rain sensor.
If a customer states the wipers do not work when the wiper lever is pushed down to the intermittent (INT) position, make sure the customer is familiar
with the above information.
^
You can demonstrate the operation of the system by pushing the wiper lever down to the intermittent (INT) position and spraying/sprinkling water
over the rain sensor.
NOTE:
If a wiper-operation incident does occur, refer to the applicable Electronic Service Manual (ESM) for further diagnostic assistance.
