Purpose of the System

The windshield wiping/washing functions are controlled by a separate wiper module (WWM). The system has never been directly controlled by the ZKE, even though it is a body electrical system.

The system has four wiping stages including one interval wiping speed when the ignition is in position KL R or KL15. The wiper motor output control is by the WWM located behind the glovebox.
