Wiper System & Washer System: Overview Ford Explorer II

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION

Windshield wipers are operated by a permanent-magnet motor. When wiper control switch is in intermittent (INT) position, wipers make single sweeps, separated by adjustable-length pauses. On 2WD vehicles not equipped with power windows, all wiper functions are controlled by a Central Timer Module (CTM). On all other applications, wiper functions are controlled by Generic Electronic Module/Central Timer Module (GEM/CTM). CTM or GEM/CTM is located under center of instrument panel.
