OUTLINE
The rear wiper is controlled by each function of BCM.
Control by BCM
  • Combination switch reading function
  • Rear wiper control function
 
 
REAR WIPER BASIC OPERATION
  • BCM detects the combination switch condition by the combination switch reading function.
  • BCM controls the rear wiper to start or stop.
 
 
REAR WIPER ON OPERATION
  • BCM supplies power to the rear wiper motor according to the rear wiper ON operating condition.
    Rear wiper ON operating condition
    • Electric motor switch ON
    • Rear wiper switch ON
 
 
REAR WIPER INTERMITTENT OPERATION
  • BCM supplies power to the rear wiper motor according to the intermittent operating condition.
    Rear wiper intermittent operating condition
    • Electric motor switch ON
    • Rear wiper switch INT
  • BCM controls the rear wiper to operate once.
  • BCM detects the rear wiper motor stop position.
  • BCM supplies power to the rear wiper motor after an intermittent from the stop of the rear wiper motor.
 
 
REAR WIPER AUTO STOP OPERATION
  • BCM stops supplying power to the rear wiper motor when the rear wiper switch is turned OFF.
  • BCM reads a rear wiper stop position signal from the rear wiper motor to detect a rear wiper motor position.
  • When the rear wiper motor is at other than the stopping position, BCM continues to supply power to the rear wiper motor until it returns to the stop position.
noteBCM stops supplying power to the rear wiper motor when the power supply mode of the electric motor switch is turned OFF.
 
 
REAR WIPER OPERATION LINKED WITH WASHER
  • BCM supplies power to the rear wiper motor according to the washer linked operating condition of rear wiper. When the rear washer switch is turned OFF, BCM controls rear wiper to operate approximately 3 times.
    Washer linked operating condition of rear wiper
    • Electric motor switch ON
    • Rear washer switch ON
  • BCM transmits the rear washer pump request signal to IPDM E/R via CAN communication depending condition.
  • IPDM E/R turns ON/OFF the rear washer pump relay according to the rear washer pump request signal. IPDM E/R provides the power supply to operate the front and rear washer pump.
 
 
REAR WIPER OPERATION LINKED WITH REVERSE
  • BCM controls rear wiper to intermittent operating according to the conditions of rear wiper operation linked with reverse.
    Condition of rear wiper operation linked with reverse
    • Electric motor switch ON
    • Front wiper switch: LO, HI, INT or AUTO
    • Rear wiper switch OFF
    • Selector lever “R”
  • When selector lever is shifted to "R", PHEV-ECU transmits reverse switch signal to BCM via CAN communication, and then operates rear wiper motor.
noteRear wiper operation linked with reverse can be set to ON or OFF changed by combination meter setting.
