Container Mounted Washer System

The rear washer pump and solvent container mounts to the left fender, inside the engine compartment. The rear window wiper/washer will always run out of solvent before the windshield wiper/washer does. It the rear washer fails to operate, try washing the windshield. If you are able to wash the windshield and not the rear window, try filling the solvent container.

The washer hose routes from the solvent container, along the inside of the left frame rail to the rear of the vehicle. A one-way check valve between the washer pump motor assembly and the washer hose harness allows fluid flow toward the washer nozzle only. A second check valve is behind the rear bumper, where the hose continues up the right side of the door opening frame, across the vehicle to the rear window wiper motor assembly.

Depressing the wash button while the wiper motor operates in either "DELAY" or "ON" completes the washer motor's circuit to ground, energizing the motor and operating the washer pump. The pump operates only while the wash button is held. When the button is released, approximately 3 wipes are made without washing activity before the wiper motor turns off.

A demand" wash will be performed if the wash button is pressed with the wiper/washer switch in the "OFF" position. The wash action will last until the wash button is released, followed by approximately 3 wipes without washing activity before the wiper motor turns off.
