The windshield wiper/washer system consists of the following components:
| • | A permanent-magnet | 
| • | Depressed-park | 
| • | A wiper motor | 
| • | A transmission | 
| • | Wiper arm and blade assemblies | 
| • | A washer pump mounted on a washer fluid reservoir | 
| • | A wiper/washer switch | 
Pulse and timing functions, along with the demand wash function, are controlled by a printed circuit board in the wiper motor cover. The wiper motor also is equipped with radio frequency interference (RFI) suppression.
Depressed-park positioning is accomplished by an external drive mechanism on the wiper motor.
