The  intermittent  wiper  features  a  vehicle  speed-
dependent variable intermittent time system*.

｠

Wiper motor torque has been increased to improve
kinetic  performance  of  the  wiper  in  the  snowfall.
Wiper  blade  pressure  has  been  increased  to
improve  the  wiping  performance  while  driving  at
high speed.

｠

The mist wiper is turned ON by operating the mist
switch in the opposite direction of the wiper switch
for easy operation. The mist wiper is equipped with
the  function  that  quickly  wipes  raindrops  away  at
high speed when the mist switch is ON, and when
the mist switch is OFF, at low speed until the stop
position is reached. When the mist switch is briefly
turned ON, the wiper operates once at low speed.

｠

The windshield washer is a 2-nozzle and 4-jet type.

｠

Washer  nozzle  with  the  integral  check  valve  has
been  adopted  to  prevent  the  washer  fluid  from
running  down,  and  to  improve  the  response  to
switch operation.

｠

The washer motor for both front windshield and rear
windshield has been installed to reduce the weight.

｠

Washer-linked  wiper  function*  has  been  adopted.
The washer fluid can be injected without operating
the  wiper.  When  the  ignition  switch  is  turned  ON
while the washer switch is ON, the washer motor
operates but the wiper does not.

NOTE: 

*: Using the configuration function, the

vehicle speed-dependent variable intermittent
time system and the washer-linked wiper function
can be adjusted. (Refer to P.51-13.)

1.

ETACS calculates the windshield intermittent wiper interval
T1  from  the  position  of  the  windshield  intermittent  wiper
switch  on  the  column  switch  and  the  vehicle  speed  signal
(sent from the TCM to ETACS via CAN communication).

NOTE: 

Using the configuration function, the vehicle

speed-dependent intermittent function can be
invalidated. (Refer to P.51-13.)

2.

When  ETACS  receives  the  ON  signal  of  the  windshield
intermittent wiper switch, it turns the windshield wiper drive
signal  ON.  When  the  wiper  reaches  the  stop  position,  the
windshield  wiper  auto-stop  signal  turns  OFF,  and  the
windshield wiper drive signal turns OFF.
When  the  intermittent  time  T1  calculated  by  step  1  has
elapsed  after  the  windshield  wiper  drive  signal  ON,  the
windshield wiper drive signal turns ON again, and the above-
mentioned operation is repeated.

When the windshield low speed wiper switch on the
column switch is turned ON while the ignition switch
is in ACC or ON position, the column switch turns the
windshield  wiper  drive  signal  ON.  Also,  the  wiper

speed  switching  relay  turns  OFF  (LO),  and  the
windshield wiper operates at low speed.
When  the  windshield  high  speed  wiper  switch  is
turned ON, the windshield wiper drive signal turns ON.
Also, the wiper speed switching relay turns ON (HI),
and the windshield wiper operates at high speed.
