Front Wiper Does Not Operate
- During IPDM E/R fail-safe control, front wipers may not operate. Refer to "CAN COMMUNICATION LINE CONTROL " in "PG IPDM E/R" to make sure that it is not in fail-safe status.
- ACTIVE TEST
With CONSULT-III
- Select "FRONT WIPER" of IPDM E/R active test item.
- With operating the test item, check that front wiper "LO" and "HI" operation.
Without CONSULT-III
Start up auto active test. Refer to "AUTO ACTIVE TEST ".
Does front wiper operate normally?
Yes: GO TO 5.
No: GO TO 2.
- CHECK FRONT WIPER CIRCUIT
- Turn ignition switch OFF.
- Disconnect IPDM E/R connector and front wiper motor connector.
- Check continuity between IPDM E/R harness connector and front wiper motor harness connector terminal.Fig 1: Identifying Continuity Between IPDM E/R Harness Connector And Front Wiper Motor Harness Connector Terminal

- CHECK IPDM E/R
With CONSULT-III
- Connect IPDM E/R connector and front wiper motor connector.
- Select "FRONT WIPER" of IPDM E/R active test item.
- With operating the test item, check voltage between IPDM E/R harness connector and ground.
IPDM E/R(+) (-) Condition Voltage IPDM E/R connector Terminal E7 21 Ground Stopped Approx. 0 V LO operation Battery voltage 31 Stopped Approx. 0 V HI operation Battery voltage Without CONSULT-III
- Connect IPDM E/R connector and front wiper motor connector.
- Start up auto active test. Refer to "AUTO ACTIVE TEST ".
- Check voltage between IPDM E/R harness connector and ground while front wiper (HI, LO) is operating.
IPDM E/R HARNESS CONNECTOR AND GROUND(+) (-) Condition Voltage IPDM E/R connector Terminal E7 21 Ground Stopped Approx. 0 V LO operation Battery voltage 31 Stopped Approx. 0 V HI operation Battery voltage OK or NG
OK: Replace front wiper motor.
NG: Replace IPDM E/R.
- CHECK CIRCUIT BETWEEN COMBINATION SWITCH AND BCM
With CONSULT-III
- Select "FR WIPER INT", "FR WIPER LOW", and "FR WIPER HI" of BCM data monitor item.
- With operating the wiper switch, check the monitor status.
Without CONSULT-III
Refer to "COMBINATION SWITCH INSPECTION ".
OK or NG
OK: GO TO 6.
NG: Check combination switch (wiper switch). Refer to "COMBINATION SWITCH INSPECTION ".
- CHECK CIRCUIT BETWEEN IPDM E/R AND BCM
Select "BCM" on CONSULT-III, and perform self-diagnosis for "BCM".
Displayed self-diagnosis results
NO DTC>>Replace BCM. Refer to "REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION OF BCM ".
CAN COMM CIRCUIT>>Check CAN communication line of BCM. Refer to "CAN COMMUNICATION INSPECTION USING CONSULT-III (SELF-DIAGNOSIS) ".
