Windshield Wiper/Washer Switch

Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S82 Windshield Wiper/Washer Switch.
Test for infinite resistance between the signal terminal 4 and the low reference terminal 2 with the rear wiper switch in the OFF position.
- If less than infinite resistance
  Replace the S82 Windshield Wiper/Washer Switch.
- If infinite resistance
Verify the resistance is within the range specified below between the signal circuit terminal 4 and the low reference circuit terminal 2 by cycling the switch between Rear Wiper position and Rear Washers position.
- Rear Wiper : 624-644 Ω
- Rear Wiper Sweep : 1.8-2.2 kΩ
- Rear Washer : 5.9-6.4 kΩ
- If not within the specific range
  Replace the S82 Windshield Wiper/Washer Switch.
- If within the specific range
All OK
