Wash/wipe switch

The wash/wipe switch is operated by briefly moving the lever. The wiper switch does not lock into place. The signal from the wash/wipe switch is forwarded by the steering column switch cluster (SZL) to the central gateway module (ZGM). From the ZGM control unit, the signal is then sent to the junction box electronics (JBE).

The axial button on the wiper switch activates the automatic mode (automatic control via the rain/driving light sensor). If the automatic mode is disabled, intermittent operation is controlled on a speed-dependent basis.
