CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • When using the Techstream with the power switch off to troubleshoot:

    Connect the Techstream to the vehicle, and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at 1.5 second intervals until communication between the Techstream and vehicle begins.

  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

PROCEDURE

1.

CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (RAIN SENSOR - WINDSHIELD WIPER RELAY ASSEMBLY)

(a) Disconnect the I56 windshield wiper relay assembly connector.

(b) Disconnect the T8 rain sensor connector.

(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection

Condition

Specified Condition

I56-14 (MPX1) - T8-1 (MPX)

Always

Below 1 Ω

I56-14 (MPX1) - Body ground
