When the wiper switch on the steering column stalk (7) is operated, the wiper motor (1) is switched on or off. The junction box electronics execute the functions of the wiper/washer system. The motor for the washer fluid pump (5) or for the headlight cleaning system (4) is switched on or off by the junction box electronics.
On vehicles with automatic driving lights control, the junction box electronics receive the information about switching the wiper/washer system on/off from the rain/lights/solar/condensation sensor (8).
The Dynamic Stability Control (10) provides information about the vehicle speed.
