REAR





The rear washer plumbing consists of small diameter rubber hose (3) that is routed from the barbed outlet nipple of the reversible electric washer pump/motor unit on the washer reservoir on the left side of the engine compartment side by side with the front washer hose and the front end module wiring across the cooling module at the front to the right side of the engine compartment. The rear washer hose is then routed along with the front end module wiring across the top of the right front inner wheel house to the dash panel, where an in-line plastic fitting connects the rear washer hose to the headliner hose (1), which passes into the passenger compartment through a rubber grommet (2).





The headliner hose is routed below the instrument panel in the passenger compartment near the right cowl side inner panel and up the right A-pillar to the headliner (2). The headliner hose is glued to the headliner substrate and routed along the right roof side rail to the rear of the vehicle. At the rear of the vehicle, the headliner hose passes through rubber grommets and a hole at the rear portion of the roof rear inner header panel and the upper liftgate inner panel where it is connected to the rear washer nozzle in the Center High Mounted Stop Lamp (CHMSL).

The headliner washer hose is integral to the headliner unit and, if ineffective or damaged, the headliner unit must be replaced. However, the headliner hose can be cut and spliced with a plastic in-line connector fitting to facilitate headliner removal without the need to remove the instrument panel. Headliner - Removal.

Washer hose 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.
