- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test .

2. CHECK THE (W2) WIPER HIGH/LOW RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the PDC C7 harness connector.
3. Disconnect the BCM A harness connector.
4. Measure the resistance between ground and the (W2) Wiper High/Low Relay Control circuit.

Is the resistance above 10k Ohms?

Yes

- Go To 3

No

- Repair the short to ground in the (W2) Wiper High/Low Relay Control circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test .

3. CHECK THE BCM FOR CORRECT OPERATION
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Reconnect the BCM A harness connector.
3. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (W2) Wiper High/Low Relay Control circuit at the PDC C7 harness connector.
4. Turn the ignition on.
5. Turn the front wipers on to high speed.

Does the test light illuminate?

Yes

- Replace the PDC.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test .

No
