Rear Washer Hoses And Tubes - Description

REAR





The rear washer plumbing consists of a small diameter rubber hose (3) that is routed along the left front fender shield (6) from the washer reservoir hose (5) located at the left front corner of the engine compartment. The reservoir hose is attached to the rear outlet nipple of the washer pump/motor unit near the bottom of the reservoir. The hose is then secured by a plastic clip retainer to the front end sheet metal within the engine compartment and routed to just behind the left strut tower, where it connects to the unibody hose (7).





The unibody hose (1) passes from the engine compartment through a hole with a rubber grommet in the dash panel into the passenger compartment where it enters the body wire harness. The hose and wire harness bundle is routed along the floor panel (3) near the left sill back to the base of the left rear inner wheel house (2). The hose and wiring bundle is then routed over the wheel house and along the quarter inner panel near the belt line, then up the D-pillar.





The unibody hose (3) exits the body wire harness near the top of the D-pillar, where it is connected to the liftgate washer hose (2) by a quick connect fitting. The liftgate washer hose is routed up the D-pillar to the upper liftgate opening header panel, then to the center of the upper liftgate opening. The liftgate hose is routed through a hole with a rubber grommet in the upper liftgate opening header panel and passes through another hole with a rubber grommet in the upper liftgate panel (1) to the rear washer nozzle on the upper liftgate.

Washer hose is available for service as roll stock, which may be cut to length. The unibody washer hose is integral to the body wire harness. The molded plastic washer hose fittings and routing clips cannot be repaired. If these fittings or clips are ineffective or damaged, they must be replaced.
