B2374-WASHER SWITCH INPUT CIRCUIT







Theory of Operation

The Washer/Wiper Switch is part of the Right Multifunction Switch. The switching status is transferred to the Cluster by way of the LIN bus, a serial sub-bus. The Cluster converts the data to CAN(B) and sends the message to the corresponding module on the bus.

- When Monitored:
Continuously with the ignition on.

- Set Condition:
The Cluster senses that the Washer Switch is in the Set position for greater than 50 seconds.
