Mist Wiper Control

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

When the ignition switch is at the ACC or ON position, if the windshield mist wiper switch of the column switch is turned ON, the front-ECU turns ON the windshield wiper drive signal. At the same time, the wiper speed switching relay is turned ON (HIGH-SPEED). While the windshield mist wiper switch is ON, the windshield wiper will operate at high speed. Then, if the windshield mist wiper switch is turned off, the wiper operates at low speed until it stops at the predetermined park position.

When the windshield mist switch is turned on briefly, the wiper operates at low speed once. At the point the windshield mist switch is turned ON, if the windshield wiper has been operating intermittently, the same operations as the above will be performed while the windshield mist wiper switch is ON. After the windshield mist wiper switch goes OFF, the intermittent operations will be set again T1 seconds after the windshield wiper auto-stop signal is turned ON last. See Fig 1.
