Function of windshield wiper system
The windshield wiper system is used to ensure visibility through the front and rear windshields in bad weather. Typically, this system consists of the wiper blade, a drive motor, a switch and, in some vehicles, a control module.
The wiper is usually controlled via the steering column lever, which is located on the steering wheel or on the steering column. The lever can usually be used to operate both the front and rear wipers and adjust the wiping interval. In rare cases, the windshield wiper can also be controlled via a separate control module, not via the lever.
