Description
DESCRIPTION
The right (wiper) multi-function switch (4) is secured to the right side of the multi-function switch mounting housing at the top of the steering column, just below the steering wheel. The only visible component of the right multi-function switch is the control stalk (1) that extends through a dedicated opening in the right side of the steering column shrouds. The remainder of the right multi-function switch is concealed beneath the steering column shrouds. The switch is secured to the multi-function switch mounting housing near the top of the steering column by two screws.
The control stalk (1) has a control knob on its end with a flattened face to allow it to be easily rotated. Just below the control knob is a knurled control sleeve (2). The right multi-function switch will control the operation of the front and rear wiper systems by rotating the control knob (3). This will signal the Body Control Module (BCM) and control the operation of the rear wiper motor.
The right (wiper) multi-function switch cannot be adjusted or repaired. If any function of the switch is faulty, or if the switch is damaged, the entire switch unit must be replaced.
The right (wiper) multi-function switch supports:
- Continuous Front Wipe Modes - The internal circuitry and hardware of the right (wiper) multi-function switch control knob provide two continuous front wipe switch positions, low speed or high speed.
- Continuous Rear Wipe Mode - The internal circuitry and hardware of the right (wiper) multi-function switch control sleeve provides one continuous rear wipe switch position.
- Front Washer Mode - The internal circuitry and hardware of the right (wiper) multi-function switch control stalk provide front washer system operation.
- Front Wipe-After-Wash Mode - The internal circuitry and hardware of the right (wiper) multi-function switch control stalk provide a wipe-after-wash mode.
- Front Wiper Mist Mode - The internal circuitry and hardware of the right (wiper) multi-function switch control stalk provide a front wiper system mist mode.
- Intermittent Front Wipe Mode - The internal circuitry and hardware of the right (wiper) multi-function switch control knob provide an intermittent front wipe mode with five delay interval positions, except on models equipped with the optional automatic wiper system.
- Intermittent Rear Wipe Mode - The internal circuitry and hardware of the right (wiper) multi-function switch control ring provide one fixed interval intermittent rear wipe mode switch position.
- Rear Washer Mode - The internal circuitry and hardware of the right (wiper) multi-function switch control stalk provide rear washer system operation.
