One or Both Wipers Running Continuously


TASK 30-45-00-810-811-A
One or Both Wipers Running Continuously


CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THE WIPERS WHEN THE WINDSHIELD IS DRY. PUT WATER ON THE WINDSHIELD WHEN THE WIPERS OPERATE.
1. Possible Causes

B. If the test confirms the fault:
  • Do a check of the status of the ANTI ICE/WIPER/CAPT (4DB1) (ANTI ICE/F/O/WIPER (4DB2)) circuit breaker.
   (1) If the ANTI ICE/WIPER/CAPT (4DB1) (ANTI ICE/F/O/WIPER (4DB2)) circuit breaker is closed:
  • Do a check for 28VDC at pin A of the MOTOR CONVERTER-WIPER, CAPT (6DB1) (MOTOR CONVERTER-WIPER, F/O (6DB2)) ASM 304501.
     (a) If there is no 28VDC:
  • Repair the wiring from pin 2 of the ANTI ICE/WIPER/CAPT (4DB1) (ANTI ICE/F/O/WIPER (4DB2)) circuit breaker to pin A of the MOTOR CONVERTER-WIPER, CAPT (6DB1) (MOTOR CONVERTER-WIPER, F/O (6DB2)).
     (b) If there is 28VDC:
       1 On the OVERHEAD CTL & IND panel 21VU (22VU), set the WIPER control switch to SLOW.
  • Do a check for ground at pin C of the MOTOR CONVERTER-WIPER, CAPT (6DB1) (MOTOR CONVERTER-WIPER, F/O (6DB2)).
         a If there is no ground signal:
  • Do a check of the wiring from pin C of the MOTOR CONVERTER-WIPER, CAPT (6DB1) (MOTOR CONVERTER-WIPER, F/O (6DB2)) to pin 3 of the WIPER control switch, CAPT (5DB1) (WIPER control switch, F/O (5DB2)).

    If there is no continuity:
  • Repair the above wiring .

    If there is continuity:
  • Replace the CTL SW-WIPER, CAPT [5DB1] ( CTL SW-WIPER, F/O [5DB2] )
         b If there is a ground signal:
  • Do the next step.
       2 On the OVERHEAD CTL & IND panel 21VU (22VU), set the WIPER control switch to FAST.
  • Do a check for ground at pin E of the MOTOR CONVERTER-WIPER, CAPT (6DB1) (MOTOR CONVERTER-WIPER (6DB2)).
         a If there is no ground signal:
  • Do a check of the wiring from pin E of the MOTOR CONVERTER-WIPER, CAPT (6DB1)(MOTOR CONVERTER-WIPER, F/O (6DB2)) to pin 4 of the WIPER control switch, CAPT (5DB1) (WIPER control switch, F/O (5DB2)).

    If there is no continuity:
  • Repair the above wiring .

    If there is continuity:
  • Replace the CTL SW-WIPER, CAPT [5DB1] ( CTL SW-WIPER, F/O [5DB2] ).
         b If there is a ground signal:
   (2) If the ANTI ICE/WIPER/CAPT (4DB1) (ANTI ICE/F/O/WIPER (4DB2)) circuit breaker is open:
     (a) If the fault continues:
  • Replace the C/B-ANTI ICE/WIPER/CAPT [4DB1] ( C/B-ANTI ICE/F/O/WIPER [4DB2] ).
   (3) If the fault continues:
