Abstract

See full text

A method of controlling a rear wiper system of a vehicle includes determining at least one current vehicle operating parameter with a vehicle controller in response to the rear wiper system being activated. The current vehicle operating parameter may include an on/off status of a front wiper system, a wiper speed of the front wiper system, a ground speed of the vehicle, or some other parameter dependent upon a body style of the vehicle. A delay time for the rear wiper system is defined, with the vehicle controller, based on one or more of the current vehicle operating parameters. The rear wiper system is controlled, with the vehicle controller, to repeatedly actuate the rear wiper system at time intervals separated by the defined delay time. Accordingly, the delay time of the rear wiper system is controlled by the vehicle controller as a function of the current vehicle operating parameters.
