Forget it! They are junk & hard to get at.
Install a small electric pump next to the washer bottle...easy to install and easy to replace. |

Re: best way to access windshield washer pump
Do you have to remove the instrument panel to get the motor out as well? I have to get a new wiper motor.

Re: best way to access windshield washer pump
I havent had any problems with the replacements. And the oe one in my orange and white worked till I took it out of service in 2000.
As for replacing the wiper motor. Yes remove the cluster. And you will have to remove the cowl to to undo the motor from the linkage. Last edited by Aarons72s; 08-07-2007 at 09:10 PM. |

Re: best way to access windshield washer pump
the service manual says remove the ignition switch and it can be accessed but i agree it is much easier to remove the cluster

Re: best way to access windshield washer pump
It seems to me that removing the ignition switch would not help very much.
