Front Washer Hoses And Tubes - Description

FRONT

The front washer plumbing consists of small diameter rubber hoses that are routed along with the rear washer plumbing from the washer reservoir located at the right front corner of the engine compartment. Both reservoir hoses are attached to their respective front or rear outlet nipple of the washer pump/motor unit near the bottom of the reservoir. The hoses are then secured in troughs integral to the reservoir up to the base of the reservoir filler neck, where they connect to the engine compartment hoses.

The engine compartment hoses are sheathed within molded plastic convolute tubing for protection and routed along the right side of the inner fender to the cowl plenum. They pass through a rubber grommet into the cowl just above the right front strut tower. From the plenum panel, the two washer hoses are routed separately.

The front hose is routed through the plenum to the right end of the cowl plenum cover/grille panel, where it is connected to the check valve wye fitting. The two front nozzle supply hoses are attached to the check valve and secured in routing clips integral to the underside of the cowl plenum cover/grille panel to the two front washer nozzles. The rear hose is routed through the cowl plenum to near the center of the vehicle, where it passes through a rubber grommet and a hole in the dash panel into the passenger compartment.

Washer hose or tube is available for service only as roll stock, which must then be cut to length. The molded plastic washer hose fittings cannot be repaired. If these fittings are ineffective or damaged, they must be replaced.
