Difficulty: Intermediate · About 75 min · Nissan Murano

Replace the washer reservoir on a 2015–2024 Nissan Murano. The service procedure accesses the tank by removing the right headlamp, then disconnects the filler neck, front and rear washer motors, level switch, hoses, and harness before lifting the reservoir out.

Steps

1. Verify the replacement and empty the tank

   Confirm the reservoir application by VIN, including whether the vehicle has front and rear washer motors. Switch off the ignition and empty the tank into a container to limit spills during removal.

2. Remove the right headlamp

   Release the right headlamp fasteners and electrical connectors using the vehicle-specific procedure. Set the lamp aside on a protected surface so the tank inlet and wiring are accessible.

3. Disconnect the filler neck and components

   Remove the filler-neck retaining clip and lift the inlet from the tank. Unplug the front and rear washer motors and fluid-level switch, then disconnect their hoses and free the harness from its tank clips.

4. Remove the reservoir

   Support the tank while removing its mounting bolts, then guide it out without pulling on the hoses or nearby wiring. Inspect the motor seals and tank grommets, replacing any that are split or hardened.

5. Install and reconnect the new tank

   Position the replacement reservoir and tighten its fasteners to the vehicle specification. Reconnect the hoses, motor plugs, level-switch connector, harness clips, and filler neck in the reverse order.

6. Refill and check for leaks

   Reinstall the right headlamp and verify its electrical connection. Fill the reservoir with approved washer fluid, test the front and rear washers, and inspect all tank openings and hose joints for leaks.

Check your vehicle’s repair manual for exact specifications and fit.
