Windshield Wiper

Information and verification, windshield wiper

Symptom and function description
The windscreen wipers are switched off as long as the right-hand stalk is in position 0. The windscreen wipers are operated using the control stalk, which has four different positions:
- Intermittent wiping.
- Single sweep.
- Normal speed.
- High speed.

Intermittent wiping.
The time between the sweeps for intermittent wiping can be adjusted using the collar on the stalk. Turning the collar clockwise (upwards) increases the frequency of the wiper strokes.
Turning the collar anticlockwise (downwards) decreases the frequency of the wiper strokes.

Single sweep.
If the right-hand stalk is moved up, the wipers will only make one sweep.

Normal speed.
The windscreen wipers sweep at normal speed.

A signal tells the vehicle when the windscreen wipers are in the "parked position" in order to stop the wipers in the correct position.

- Activate ignition position II.
