mann777 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 I have 2 ,2006s.in both,this feature no longer works.just low and high. Easy fix? Common problem? Could you tell me if the toggle s/w for the rain sensor is in Auto Mode. Also sometimes if the sensor which is stuck to the windscreen, there is a tape which holds it together P/n 89944-50010, costs 10 bucks i assume, so maybe the glue is weak have them replaced, it works.

LEXIRX330 Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 The toggle he is referring to is the windshield wiper stalk...or arm. The main on/off for windshield wiper. I think all the way up is off, down 1 auto, down 1 low...so on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be set to the least sensitivity thus requiring a lot more water to make the wipers turn on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Gee Posted December 2, 2010 Author Share Posted December 2, 2010 Is there a diagnostic tool for this?both sensors appear well attached.have checked all of the wiper settings.any other thoughts before taking them into the dealer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pj8708 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Is there a diagnostic tool for this?both sensors appear well attached.have checked all of the wiper settings.any other thoughts before taking them into the dealer? If the wiper control stalk is in the "on" position,(first notch down), and the delay setting ring around the stalk has been turned to different settings,and the rain sensor is firmly stuck to the glass, and the windshield wipers work in the other 2 positions, you have pretty much exhausted all possible operating issues. The sensor may be bad. There is no diagnostic codes to my knowledge. Open your wallet and see your dealer. Faster and will fix the problem.

mann777 Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 The sensor does not get activated if you toggle the s/w, the function of the sensor is only when there is incessant rain showers on the front windscreen,and the toggle is on Auto mode wherein the sensor gets activated, the manual operation is via the toggle switch. I hope this clear you doubt on the functionality of the sensor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
