PUMP-WASHER-WINDSHIELD
DESCRIPTION
The washer pump/motor unit (1) is located on the top
of a sump area on the outward facing side of the com-
bination
washer
reservoir/coolant
reserve
bottle,
ahead of the right front fender wheel house splash
shield. A small permanently lubricated and sealed
reversible electric motor is coupled to the rotor-type
washer pump (3).
An inlet nipple (5) on the bottom of the pump housing
passes through a rubber grommet seal (4) installed in
a dedicated mounting hole of the washer reservoir.
When the pump is installed in the reservoir the barbed
outlet nipple (6) on the pump valve body housing
points rearward and connects the unit to the reservoir
washer hose, which is engaged in an integral trough
molded into the reservoir/bottle unit.
The washer pump/motor unit is retained on the reservoir by the interference fit between the pump inlet nipple and
the grommet seal, which is a light press fit. The top of the washer pump is also secured to the washer reservoir by
the use of a snap fit into a receptacle molded into the reservoir that allows for mounting of the washer pump without
the use of fasteners. An integral connector receptacle (2) on the top of the motor housing connects the unit to the
vehicle electrical system through a dedicated take out and connector of the headlamp and dash wire harness.
