DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

Rear wiper
The rear wiper is driven directly from an electric motor located inside the tail door. The motor is mounted inside the 
tail door with two bolts, lock washers and washers. The motor mounting brackets have rubber inserts to prevent motor 
operating noise being transferred to the door structure. The motor spindle is fitted with a seal and protrudes through 
a hole in the tail door outer skin panel. The motor spindle is secured to the tail door with a washer and nut.

The motor output spindle has a taper splined shaft which allows for the attachment of the wiper arm which is secured 
with a nut. The wiper arm attachment to the splined shaft has a pivot to which the remainder of the arm is attached. 
The two parts of the arm are connected by a spring which controls the pressure of the blade on the window to a 
predetermined amount.

The wiper blade is attached to the wiper arms with a clip which allows the blade to pivot. The wiper blade comprises 
of a number of levers and yokes to which the rubber wiper is attached. The levers and yokes ensure that the pressure 
applied by the arm spring is evenly distributed along the full length of the blade. The rubber wiper is held in the yokes 
by a pair of stainless steel strips which also contribute to the even distribution of spring pressure along the blade.

Rear wiper switch

The rear wiper switch is a latching pushbutton switch and is located on the right hand side of the instrument pack.

Activating the rear wiper switch provides an earth signal to the BCU.  The BCU signals the IDM to energise the rear 
wiper relay, which provides battery voltage to the rear wiper motor.
