Wipers Run At One Speed Only

NOTE: Wiper motor runs in low speed position, but not in high speed position or wiper motor runs in high speed position but not in low speed position.
  1. If wiper motor will not run on low speed, go to next step. If wiper motor will not run on high speed, go to step  3 .
  2. Disconnect wiper motor harness connector. Using a jumper wire, connect battery voltage to wiper motor terminal No. 2 (component side). Connect a second jumper wire between ground and wiper motor terminal No. 5 (component side). See WIRING DIAGRAMS  . See Figure . If motor runs, go to step  4 . If motor does not run, replace wiper motor. See WIPER MOTOR  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION.
  3. Disconnect wiper motor harness connector. Using a jumper wire, connect battery voltage to wiper motor terminal No. 1 (component side). Connect a second jumper wire between ground and wiper motor terminal No. 5 (component side). If motor runs, go to step  5 . If motor does not run, replace wiper motor.
  4. Remove HIGH/LOW wiper relay from power distribution center. Check continuity in Brown/White wire between HIGH/LOW wiper relay terminal "E" and wiper motor connector terminal No. 2. See Figure and Figure . If continuity exists, go to next step. If continuity does not exist, repair open Brown/White wire.
  5. Check continuity in Red/Yellow wire between HIGH/LOW wiper relay terminal "D" and wiper motor connector terminal No. 1. If continuity exists, check for faulty HIGH/LOW wiper relay. If continuity does not exist, repair open Red/Yellow wire.
