dre2142 Posted December 30, 2015 Report Share Posted December 30, 2015 So I wasnt getting any spray out of my nozzles.....check out the connections and both had broken off at the fluid tube at the nozzles under the hood. I think I got most of the broken nozzle pieces out of the tubes. Put new nozzles in, and now Im getting fluid out of the nozzles but they arent making it up onto the windshield.What do you think the problem is. A- tubes are clogged? I blew through the ends of them and blew bubbles in the resevoir. B- pump is dying or not pushing hard enough? Is this an option, that the pump is only half power or is the pump a "it either works or it doesnt"? Let me know your thoughts.Thanks all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted December 30, 2015 Report Share Posted December 30, 2015 (edited) I would place the blame on the pump. Forced spraying in cold weather increases wear and tear on that component, causes overheating, and thus breakdown over time. Possible causes as listed by the FSM (for inoperative pump): Open or short to ground in circuit CRW07 (GY/BN), CRW14 (BU/WH), CRW20 (GY/YE) or CRW23 (VT/GN) Multi-function switch Washer pump motor Windshield wiper motor Rear window wiper motor If you stop then restart spraying, does it work any better? Removal and Installation Remove the RH front fender splash shield. For additional information, refer to Section 501-02 . CAUTION: When replacing the washer pump, be careful not to damage the rubber grommet. NOTE: To prevent spilling windshield washer fluid, drain the washer reservoir before washer pump removal. Remove the washer pump. Disconnect the electrical connector. Disconnect the hoses. Remove the washer pump. CAUTION: Do not operate the washer pump prior to filling the washer reservoir. Failure to follow these instructions may result in premature pump failure. To install, reverse the removal procedure. Fill the washer reservoir with windshield washer fluid.

Brucifer Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 Most of my tubes were hard plastic and straight enough to see through. Don't cost nothin' to double check. I also ran the pump with the nozzles detached to see what the flow was like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 Another option comes to mind. You have gunk in the resivoir itself. Settles to the bottom creating a partial blockage. Blowing air backwards displaces the gunk, which just resettle to the bottom afterwards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dre2142 Posted January 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 (edited) The back nozzles on the back window are the same pump, yes?.......there is no problem getting fluid pumped to that back nozzle, so I must have an issue with clogged lines on the front.

One pump to spray them all..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
