Circuit/System Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 GMC Sierra and 2007 Chevrolet Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The windshield washer function is controlled by the body control module (BCM). When the washer switch is pressed, ground is applied through the switch contacts and the signal circuit to the BCM indicating the wash request. The BCM then applies ground through the control circuit to the coil side of the WSH Relay energizing the relay. With the relay energized, battery voltage from the WPR fuse is applied through the switch contacts of the relay, the WSW/PUMP Fuse, and the control circuit to the windshield washer fluid pump.
