DTC Descriptor
DTC B371A 39
Windshield Wiper Motor Internal Malfunction
Circuit/System Description
B+ voltage and ground are supplied to the windshield wiper motor. Whenever the vehicle is ON or in Service Mode, the body control module (BCM) sends the wiper/washer switch status through the LIN communication bus. If a fault occurs at any time in the windshield wiper motor, the BCM will set the DTC.
Conditions for Running the DTC
The BCM runs the diagnostic to detect an internal fault when power up is commanded. The only requirements are voltage and ground. This diagnostic runs even if the voltage is out of the valid operating range.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The BCM receives an invalid signal from the windshield wiper motor.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The BCM ignores all additional inputs.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
A current DTC clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
