FRONT

• ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster - The ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN) is located on the instrument panel directly in front of the driver. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/INSTRUMENT CLUSTER - DESCRIPTION).
• Front Washer Check Valve (3) - A check valve is located in the front washer plumbing on the underside of the hood panel near the front washer nozzle.
• Front Washer Nozzle (4) - A single fluidic front washer nozzle is secured by an integral latch feature to a dedicated opening in the center of the hood panel near the base of the windshield.
• Front Washer Plumbing - The plumbing for the washer system consists of rubber hoses and molded rubber or plastic fittings. The plumbing is routed from the washer reservoir along the left side of the engine compartment to the dash panel, then across the underside of the inner hood panel reinforcement to the washer nozzle.
• Front Wiper Arms And Blades (6) - The two front wiper arms are secured with nuts to the threaded ends of the two wiper pivot shafts, which extend through the cowl plenum cover/grille panel located near the base of the windshield. The two equal length front wiper blades are each secured to their wiper arm with an integral latch, and are parked on the glass near the bottom of the windshield when the front wiper system is not in operation.
• Front Wiper Module (5) - The wiper pivot shafts are the only visible components of the front wiper module. The remainder of the module is concealed within the cowl plenum beneath the cowl plenum cover/grille panel. The wiper module includes the wiper module bracket, three rubber-isolated wiper module mounts, the wiper motor, the wiper motor crank arm, the two wiper drive links, the two wiper pivots and the two pivot water shields.
• Right Multi-Function Switch (7) - The right (wiper) multi-function switch and the left (lighting) multi-function switch are secured to brackets integral to the clockspring housing on the top of the steering column just below the steering wheel. The right multi-function switch is connected by a short jumper harness to the Steering Control Module (SCM), which is internal to the left multi-function switch housing. Only the switch control stalk extending from the right side of the steering column is visible, while the remainder of the switch is concealed beneath the steering column shrouds. The right multi-function switch is dedicated to providing all of the driver controls for both the front and rear wiper and washer systems.
• Steering Control Module - The Steering Control Module (SCM) is internal to the left multi-function switch housing, which is secured to a bracket integral to the left side of the clockspring housing on the top of the steering column just below the steering wheel. Only the left switch control stalk extending from the left side of the steering column is visible, while the remainder of the switch housing containing the SCM is concealed beneath the steering column shrouds. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/STEERING COLUMN CONTROL MODULE - DESCRIPTION).
• Totally Integrated Power Module (2) - The Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) is located in the engine compartment, near the battery. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER DISTRIBUTION/TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE - DESCRIPTION).
• Washer Pump/Motor - The single or reversible dual electric washer pump/motor unit is located in a dedicated hole in a sump area on the lower washer reservoir. The reversible dual washer pump/motor provides washer fluid to either the front or rear washer system plumbing, depending upon the direction of the pump motor rotation.
• Washer Reservoir (1) - The washer reservoir is located in the left front corner of the engine compartment. The reservoir filler cap is also accessed from the left front corner of the engine compartment.

Hard wired circuitry connects the front wiper and washer system components to the electrical system of the vehicle. These hard wired circuits are integral to several wire harnesses, which are routed throughout the vehicle and retained by many different methods. These circuits may be connected to each other, to the vehicle electrical system and to the front wiper and washer system components through the use of a combination of soldered splices, splice block connectors, and many different types of wire harness terminal connectors and insulators. Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The wiring information includes wiring diagrams, proper wire and connector repair procedures, further details on wire harness routing and retention, as well as pin-out and location views for the various wire harness connectors, splices and grounds.
