Wiper Pulse Control Resistance Test
1991 Cadillac Seville STSSECTION Wiper Pulse Control Resistance Test
- Perform test with wiper motor module connector C1 and negative battery cable disconnected. Ensure ignition switch is in OFF position and wiper/washer switch is in LO position. Use an ohmmeter to measure resistance between C1 terminal "B" (Gray wire) and C1 terminal "F" (Pink wire). If resistance is approximately 24 k/ohms, replace wiper motor module cover.
- If reading is infinite ohms, check for open circuits No. 94 (Pink wire) and No. 91 (Gray wire). If wires are okay, replace wiper/washer switch. Move wiper delay switch to maximum delay position. Check resistance between C1 terminal "B" (Gray wire) and C1 terminal "F" (Pink wire).
- If reading is approximately 1.2 megohms, replace wiper motor module cover. If reading is infinite ohms, check for open circuits No. 94 (Pink wire) and No. 91 (Gray wire). If wires are okay, replace wiper/washer switch.
