Windshield Washer Motor: Testing and Inspection

Washer Motor Test

1. Remove the right inner fender.




2. Disconnect the 2P connectors (A) from the washer motors.
3. Test the motor by connecting battery power to the No.1 terminal and ground the No.2 terminal of the washer motor. The motor should run.
- If the motor does not run or fails to run smoothly, replace it.
- If the motor runs smoothly, but little or no washer fluid is pumped, check for a disconnected or blocked washer hose, or a clogged pump outlet in the motor.
