Windshield Wiper Motor, Deactivating Alternating Park Position Function
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2023 Volkswagen Atlas. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Windshield wiper system is equipped with APP function (alternating park position).
The APP function causes the wiper at every second wiper shut off to move upward slightly after reaching the lowest position.
To install the motor crank on the windshield wiper motor, it is necessary to shut off the motor in the lowest park position. APP function must be deactivated to ensure this.
CAUTION:
- An activation of APP function is not possible.
- APP function is automatically activated after 100 wiping cycles. This applies to wiper motors in which the APP function was deactivated as well as for new wiper motors.
-- Connect the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester. Refer to VEHICLE DIAGNOSTIC TESTER .
-- Deactivate the wiper motor APP function using the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester.
CAUTION:
After successfully completing coding / deactivating of the APP function, the windshield wiper motor is located in the lower park position after the next wiper cycle.
