Rain sensing wipers operation

[JohnyPython]

Is there a way to use rain x and have these function correctly at the same time? I feel like there’s a sensing node that’s right in the middle of the dash, and I can rain x what’s right in my view

I use RainX washer fluid and no problems

I believe the sensor is by the rear view mirror. Just don't treat that area.

What is the node right on top on the front of the dash? It’s triangular shaped I thought that was it. I’ll get a pic when I can

I do that too, but it’s nothing like the actual apply and rub off rain x. Water just beads and flies off the windows

Probably a sun sensor.

That is the sensor that turns on the lights when it is "dark" or in my case when it is in the shade. You can prove it by covering it up and the lights will come on.

last few cars with rain sensing wipers I have found that rain-x on the sensor is not a good idea. I generally try and avoid it.

*** I Have not tried this yet ***

Below are Forscan codes to change the wipe time config. Without testing myself yet, I cannot confirm which settings impact which wiping features. But since there's tons of smart people on this forum figured I would share and those who are comfortable could test and let us all know, unless you wanted to wait until I can test and confirm.

I went into my settings and see the place for courtesy wipe with the box unchecked (the way I want it) but do not see a box for rain sensing. It is blank after the courtesy wipe. I have the 802A package on a 2019. I looked at the window sticker and it does not mention rain sensor wipers. I would think the 802A would have it. What is going on? If you program yours let us know what you changed in the SCCM and I will see if I can do the same. Does anyone's 2019 have rain sensing wipers?

 

[FastEddie]

My 2019 has rain sensing wipers and they work fine

 

[Tin Can Rap]

Rain sensing wipers is part of the tech package; not included in the 802A.

I used Adam’s Polishes glass sealant the past couple years and the rain sensing wipers have worked fine
