Default Windshield Washers Help

I have noticed that my washer for my windshield are just barely pushing washer fluid on the windshield, all most like the power is out of them. My head light washers are still perfect and running strong. I hooked up a air hose and cleaned out the lines and also cleaning right up at the nozzels but still the same. Does this mean I need a new pump for it? Anyone help me?

You may need a pump. The windshild and headlights have their own separate pumps. Think of which one you use the most?

Probably a $30 part if you look around. Replaced mine last year!

I guess the other question is, where is a good place to get the motor(s)? Does it have 1 or 2 to replace? Is it sold in a single or pair? Thanks.

Mike ... sold as single units. Look through the sponsor pages. They carry them.

George at Used Parts carries them.

Where are the pumps? I can easily see the one sitting b/t the reservior and headlight; where's the other one? My headlight washers work well, but windshield washers deader'n a doorknob. I'd like to fix it b4 winter.

The one you see on the upper side of the tank feeds the windshield ... just follow the hoses!

It is easy to remove and you can take it into any auto supply store and get a replacement. Take it with you as there are several types of pumps and getting the correct one makes it easier!
