Headlamp Washer Hoses And Tubes - Description





HEADLAMP





The headlamp washer system plumbing consists of a large diameter high pressure rubber hose (3) that is routed from the outlet nipple of the headlamp washer pump/motor unit on the washer reservoir to the barbed nipple of a tee fitting with an integral check valve located near the left headlamp washer nozzle on the back side of the front fascia (1). The other two barbed nipples of the tee fitting are connected to one short and one long length of hose that each terminate at a headlamp washer nozzle (2) behind the fascia and below the two front lamp units. The hose is secured and routed from left to right behind the fascia and above the fascia reinforcement by several routing clips. The hose connections at the nozzles and the washer pump are secured using molded plastic quick-connect fittings.

The headlamp washer hose is serviced only as a complete unit. The molded plastic washer hose fittings and check valve cannot be repaired. If these fittings or the check valve are ineffective or damaged, the entire headlamp washer hose unit must be replaced.
