Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Washer Operation
The washer can be actuated with the wipers stopped, in a constant speed mode, or in delay. When the wipers are stopped and the washer switch is depressed, the motor starts and runs in "LOW" while the washer pump provides fluid for cleaning the windshield. When the wipers are operating in a constant speed mode, the washer will also operate with the wipers at that speed. If the washer is selected when the wipers are in the delay mode, the circuitry is by-passed and the motor will operate in "LOW". The delay operation will resume after the wash cycle is complete.
