INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (WINDSHIELD WIPER RELAY ASSEMBLY - RAIN SENSOR)

   
   

   1. 

      Disconnect the G12 windshield wiper relay assembly connector.

   2. Disconnect the R17 rain sensor connector.

   3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition G12-8 (SIG) - R17-4 (SIG) Always Below 1 Ω R17-4 (SIG) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher G12-14 (PA1) - R17-3 (AUTO) Always Below 1 Ω R17-3 (AUTO) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher G12-25 (E) - R17-1 (ES) Always Below 1 Ω R17-1 (ES) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
