Front Wipers Operate For 10 Seconds, Stop For 20 Seconds, And After Repeating This Operation Five Times, They Become Inoperative
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Nissan Pathfinder. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
- When auto stop signal has not varied for 10 seconds or longer while IPDM E/R is operating front wipers, IPDM E/R considers front wipers locked and stops wiper output, which causes this symptom.
- This status can be checked by using IPDM E/R "DATA MONITOR". Under this condition, "WIP PROT" reads "BLOCK".
- CHECK IPDM E/R TO FRONT WIPER MOTOR
With CONSULT-II
Select "IPDM E/R" with CONSULT-II. With data monitor, confirm that "WIP AUTO STOP" changes from "ACT P" to "STOP P" according to wiper operation.
Without CONSULT-II
