DTC B1400 Rain Sensor Malfunction


DESCRIPTION

When the windshield wiper switch assembly position is set to AUTO, the rain sensor detects the amount of raindrops. According to the amount of raindrops, the rain sensor sends wiper drive request signals to the windshield wiper ECU at the optimal timings via LIN communication. Also, the vehicle speed-sensitive intermittent operation is still performed even when there is a rain sensor malfunction.
