Wipers and Washers

If the wipers stop operating due to any obstacle such 
as the build-up of snow, park the vehicle in a safe 
place.
Rotate the wiper switch to OFF, and set the power 
mode to ACCESSORY or VEHICLE OFF, then remove 
the obstacle.

The wiper motor may stop motor operation 
temporarily to prevent an overload. Wiper operation 
will return to normal within a few minutes, once the 
circuit has returned to normal.
