Wipers and Washers
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Mercury Milan, 2006 Lincoln Zephyr, and 2006 Ford Fusion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The windshield wiper and washer system consists of the following:
- Windshield wiper blade
- Windshield wiper pivot arm
- Windshield wiper mounting arm and pivot shaft
- Windshield wiper motor
- Windshield washer reservoir
- Windshield washer pump
- Check valve (integral to the washer pump)
- Multi-function switch
- Smart junction box (SJB)
If equipped with automatic headlamps, the SJB will illuminate the exterior lamps, including the parking lamps, when the front wipers are on for more than 10 seconds.
When the wiper control is set on any intermittent setting except INT 1, the speed dependent wipers will automatically adjust with the vehicle speed. This feature decreases the time between wipes when the vehicle speed increases.
