Low Speed System Operation

With the ignition switch in the ON or the START position and the front wiper/washer switch in the LO position, battery voltage applies through the following components:
^ The WIP fuse
^ The LO contacts of the front wiper/washer switch
^ The low side of the front wiper motor

Since the front wiper motor permanently grounds at G104, the motor operates at low speed as long as the switch remains in the LO position. When the switch is placed in the OFF position, the pawl and switch assembly provides voltage to the motor until the wipers are in the park position.
