Circuit/System Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2022 Cadillac CT5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The windshield wipers system allows the driver to clear the vehicle's windshield using a discrete switch or through an automatic rain sensing system. The windshield wiper system functions through a primary control, but also allows redundant high speed-only operation in the event of a system fault. The wiper systems uses the S82 Windshield Wiper/Washer Switch as the primary means of driver control, along with the B117A Windshield Outside Moisture/Ambient Light and Humidity Sensor to modulate intermittent wiper operation. The S82 Windshield Wiper/Washer Switch is a discrete input to the K9 Body Control Module. The K9 Body Control Module communicates with the B117A Windshield Outside Moisture/Ambient Light and Humidity Sensor and the M75 Windshield Wiper Motor via LIN to control wiper activation. The K9 Body Control Module communicates with the K219 Exterior Lighting Control Module over CAN, which controls B+ to the M75 Windshield Wiper Motor during operation.
