Steps
Catch the washer fluid
Switch off the ignition and place a pan below the washer reservoir. Remove the reservoir cap if needed to allow fluid to drain without splashing.
Remove the old pump
Unplug the pump connector and release the washer hose from its retainer. Pull the pump straight from its grommet, allowing the remaining fluid to drain into the pan.
Install the replacement pump
Inspect the grommet and replace it if cracked or loose. Connect the washer hose and electrical plug, then press the pump squarely into the reservoir until fully seated.
Refill and test
Add washer fluid and operate the pump to verify spray at the nozzles. Check around the pump grommet and hose for leaks before finishing.
Check your vehicle’s repair manual for exact specifications and fit.
