Wiper Linked Mode
When the wiper switch is in a position other than OFF, the MICU counts and records the wiper motor ON to OFF signal (edge count) within 20 seconds from the windshield wiper motor (FR WIPER AS signal). After a total of 4* 1 or 5* 2 counts, it switches to wiper linked mode and turns on the headlights, the parking lights, the taillights, and the side marker lights. The ON/OFF signals at the time of windshield washer operation are not counted. When an edge count is not received for 30 seconds or more, the count is reduced by 1, and shifting to normal mode is done when the count reaches 0. The wipers return to normal when the vehicle is stopped, or when the respective switch is set to OFF.
