A 2-speed front wiper motor with intermittent feature is used on all Honda Civic EG models. Wiper switch is part of the combination switch on the steering column. Some models are also equipped with a rear wiper/washer system.

FRONT WIPER MOTOR TEST

1. Disconnect front wiper motor 5-pin connector. Using jumper wires, connect positive battery terminal to Green/Black wire terminal and negative battery terminal to Blue wire terminal at wiper motor connector. Ensure wiper motor operates on low speed.
2. Using jumper wires, connect positive battery terminal to Green/Black wire terminal and negative battery terminal to Blue/Yellow wire terminal at wiper motor connector. Wiper motor should operate on high speed. Replace front wiper motor if it fails to operate.

REAR WIPER MOTOR TEST

1. Remove tailgate lower trim panel. Disconnect rear wiper motor 4-pin connector. Connect positive battery terminal to terminal No. 1 (Yellow/Green wire) and negative battery terminal to terminal No. 2 (Green wire). Wiper motor should operate smoothly. Replace rear wiper motor if it fails to operate.
2. Reconnect 4-pin connector. Turn rear wiper switch on. While motor is running, check voltage between terminal No. 3 (Light Green/Black wire) and terminal No. 4 (Black wire). Voltage should alternate from zero volts to more than 4 volts. If voltage is not as specified, replace rear wiper motor.

WASHER MOTOR TEST

Remove front bumper. Disconnect washer motor 2-pin connector. Connect battery voltage across washer motor terminals. Washer motor should operate smoothly. If motor runs smoothly but little or no washer fluid is pumped, check for disconnected or blocked washer fluid hose or a clogged pump outlet in motor.
