washer system plumbing (Fig. 3). The check valve is
integral to the washer nozzle plumbing wye fitting
located in the cowl plenum area beneath the cowl
plenum cover/grille panel near the base of the wind-
shield. The check valve consists of a molded plastic
body with a raised arrowhead molded into its center
section that indicates the direction of the flow
through the valve, and three barbed hose nipples
formed in a wye configuration on the outside circum-
ference of the center section of the valve body. The
check valve cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if
faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.
OPERATION
The check valve provides more than one function
in this application. It serves as a wye connector fit-
ting between the engine compartment and washer
nozzle sections of the washer supply hose. It prevents
washer fluid from draining out of the washer supply
hoses back to the washer reservoir. This drain-back
would result in a lengthy delay from when the
washer switch is actuated until washer fluid was dis-
pensed through the washer nozzles, because the
washer pump would have to refill the washer plumb-
ing from the reservoir to the nozzles. Such a drain-
back condition could also result in water, dirt, or
other outside contaminants being siphoned into the
washer system through the washer nozzle orifice.
This water could subsequently freeze and plug the
nozzle, while other contaminants could interfere with
proper nozzle operation and cause improper nozzle
spray patterns. In addition, the check valve prevents
washer fluid from siphoning through the washer noz-
zles after the washer system is turned Off.When the washer pump pressurizes and pumps
washer fluid from the reservoir through the washer
plumbing, the fluid pressure unseats a diaphragm
from over a sump well within the valve by overriding
the spring pressure applied to it by a piston (Fig. 4).
With the diaphragm unseated, washer fluid is
allowed to flow toward the two washer nozzles. When
the washer pump stops operating, the spring pres-
sure on the piston seats the diaphragm over the
sump well in the valve and fluid flow in either direc-
tion within the washer plumbing is prevented. The
check valve cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if
faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.REMOVAL

WASHER FLUID LEVEL
SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The washer fluid level switch is a single pole, sin-
gle throw reed-type switch mounted on the outboard
side of the of the washer reservoir in the engine com-
partment (Fig. 6). Only the molded plastic switch
mounting flange and the integral connector recepta-
cle are visible when the switch is installed in the res-
ervoir. A short nipple formation extends from the
inner surface of the switch mounting flange, and a
barb on the nipple near the switch mounting flange
is pressed through a rubber grommet seal installed
in the mounting hole of the reservoir.
A small, molded plastic float has two pivot pins
near its center that are snapped into two receptacles
near the ends of two stanchions that extend toward
the float from the switch nipple formation. A small
magnet is secured within the end of the float nearestthe switch nipple formation, and a reed switch is con-
cealed within the nipple. A diagnostic resistor is con-
nected between the two switch terminals within the
switch mounting flange. The washer fluid level
switch cannot be adjusted or repaired. If faulty or
damaged, the switch must be replaced.
OPERATION
The washer fluid level switch uses a pivoting,
oblong float to monitor the level of the washer fluid
in the washer reservoir. The float contains a small
magnet. When the float pivots, the proximity of this
magnet to a stationary reed switch within the nipple
formation of the switch changes. When the fluid level
in the washer reservoir is at or above the float level,
the float moves to a vertical position, the influence of
the float magnetic field is removed from the reed
switch, and the normally open reed switch contacts
open. When the fluid level in the washer reservoir
falls below the level of the pivoting float, the float
moves to a horizontal position, the influence of the
float magnetic field is applied to the reed switch, and
the contacts of the normally open reed switch close.
The washer fluid level switch is connected to the
vehicle electrical system through a dedicated take
out and connector of the right (except diesel engines)
or left (diesel engines only) headlamp and dash wire
harness. The switch is connected in series between a
clean ground output of the Front Control Module

(FCM) on a sensor return circuit and the washer
fluid switch sense input to the FCM. When the
switch closes, the FCM senses the ground on the
washer fluid switch sense circuit. The FCM is pro-
grammed to respond to this input by sending an elec-
tronic washer fluid indicator lamp-on message to the
instrument cluster over the Programmable Commu-
nications Interface (PCI) data bus. The instrument
cluster responds to this message by illuminating the
washer fluid indicator and by sounding an audible
chime tone warning.
The washer fluid level switch may be diagnosed
and tested using conventional diagnostic tools and
procedures. However, conventional diagnostic meth-
ods may not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the
instrument cluster, the FCM, or the electronic mes-
sage inputs to or outputs from the instrument cluster
and the FCM that control the operation of the
washer fluid visual and/or audible indicators. The
most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to diag-
nose the washer fluid level indicator, the instrument
cluster, the FCM, or the electronic message inputs
and outputs related to the washer fluid indicator
requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.
REMOVAL
The washer fluid level switch can be removed from
the washer reservoir without removing the reservoir
from the vehicle.
(1) Unlatch and open the hood.
(2) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative

WASHER HOSES/TUBES
DESCRIPTION
The washer plumbing consists of a small diameter
rubber reservoir washer hose that is routed from the
barbed outlet nipple of the electric washer pump/mo-tor unit on the washer reservoir through a trough
molded into the back of the reservoir above the
washer pump and to the engine compartment washer
hose (Fig. 9). On models equipped with an optional
diesel engine, the reservoir washer hose is routed
through routing clips on the top of the radiator fan
shroud from the washer reservoir on the left side of
the radiator to the engine compartment washer hose
on the right side of the radiator. The engine compart-
ment washer hose is contained within the right head-
lamp and dash wire harness, which is routed through
the engine compartment along the top of the right
front fender wheel house to the dash panel.
The engine compartment washer hose is connected
to the washer reservoir washer hose and to the cowl
plenum washer hose with molded plastic in-line fit-
tings that have a barbed nipple on each end. The
cowl plenum washer hose is routed from the engine
compartment into the cowl plenum area through a
trough formation located near the right end of the
cowl plenum cover/grille panel. The cowl plenum
washer hose is connected to the washer system check
valve/wye fitting on the underside of the cowl plenum
cover/grille panel. The cowl plenum washer hose and
the two washer nozzle hoses are routed through inte-
gral routing clips on the underside of the cowl ple-
num cover/grille panel. The cowl plenum washer hose
is connected to one nipple on the wye fitting and the
two washer nozzle hoses are connected to the other
two wye fitting nipples. The washer nozzle hoses are
then routed along the underside of the cowl plenum
cover/grille panel to the two washer nozzles.
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 faulty or damaged, they must be
replaced.
OPERATION
Washer fluid in the washer reservoir is pressurized
and fed by the washer pump/motor through the
washer system plumbing and fittings to the two
washer nozzles. Whenever routing the washer hose
or a wire harness containing a washer hose, it must
be routed away from hot, sharp, or moving parts;
and, sharp bends that might pinch the hose must be
avoided.
WASHER NOZZLE
DESCRIPTION
The two washer nozzles have integral snap fea-
tures and an anti-rotation tab that secure them in
dedicated holes in the cowl plenum cover/grille panel
located near the base of the windshield (Fig. 10). The

WASHER PUMP/MOTOR
DESCRIPTION
The washer pump/motor unit (Fig. 12) is located on
the rearward facing surface of the washer reservoir,
in the right (except diesel engine) or left (diesel
engine only) front corner of the engine compartment.
A small permanently lubricated and sealed electric
motor is coupled to the rotor-type washer pump. A
seal flange with a barbed inlet nipple on the pump
housing passes through a rubber grommet seal
installed in a dedicated mounting hole of the washer
reservoir. When the pump is installed in the reser-
voir a barbed outlet nipple on the pump housing con-
nects the unit to the washer system through a short
washer reservoir hose.
The washer pump/motor unit is retained on the
reservoir by the interference fit between the barbed
pump inlet nipple and the grommet seal, which is a
light press fit. The top of the washer pump is also
secured to the washer reservoir by the use of a snappost on the motor housing and a snap post receptacle
molded into the reservoir that allows for mounting of
the washer pump without the use of fasteners. An
integral connector receptacle on the top of the motor
housing connects the unit to the vehicle electrical
system. The washer pump/motor unit cannot be
repaired. If faulty or damaged, the entire washer
pump/motor unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The washer pump/motor unit features a small
Direct Current (DC) electric motor. The motor is con-
nected to the vehicle electrical system through a sin-
gle take out and two-cavity connector of the right
(except diesel engine) or left (diesel engine only)
headlamp and dash wire harness. The motor is
grounded at all times through another take out of
the right (except diesel engine) or left (diesel engine
only) headlamp and dash wire harness. On models
without the diesel engine, a single eyelet terminal
connector is secured by a nut to a ground stud
located on the right front fender inner shield in the
engine compartment. On models with a diesel engine,
an eyelet terminal connector is secured by a ground
screw to the left front fender inner shield in the
engine compartment. The motor receives battery cur-
rent on a washer pump/motor control circuit.
The washer pump/motor control circuit is energized
through a high side driver within the Front Control
Module (FCM) whenever the FCM receives an elec-
tronic message requesting washer system operation
from the instrument cluster over the Programmable
Communications Interface (PCI) data bus. The
instrument cluster monitors a resistor multiplexed
hard wired input from the momentary washer switch
contacts within the multi-function switch on the
steering column to determine when it should issue
the electronic message requesting washer system
operation.
Washer fluid is gravity-fed from the washer reser-
voir to the inlet side of the washer pump. When the
pump motor is energized, the motor spins the rotor
within the washer pump. The spinning pump rotor
pressurizes the washer fluid and forces it through
the pump outlet nipple, the washer plumbing, and
the washer nozzles onto the windshield glass.
The washer pump/motor unit may be diagnosed
using conventional diagnostic tools and methods.
However, conventional diagnostic methods may not
prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the instrument
cluster, the FCM, or the electronic message inputs to
or outputs from the instrument cluster and the FCM
that control the operation of the washer pump/motor
unit. The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means
to diagnose the washer pump/motor unit, the instru-
ment cluster, the FCM, or the electronic message

WASHER RESERVOIR
DESCRIPTION
Except on models equipped with an optional diesel
engine, the molded plastic washer fluid reservoir is
mounted on the right rearward facing surface of the
cooling module radiator shroud in the engine com-
partment (Fig. 14). On models with the diesel engine,
the molded plastic washer fluid reservoir is mounted
on the rearward facing surface of the left vertical
member of the radiator support in the engine com-
partment. The reservoir is a molded unit constructed
of a translucent plastic that allows the washer fluid
level to be inspected without removing the washer

reservoir cap. The most visible component of the
washer reservoir is the filler cap unit, which is
secured to and hinges on a hook feature that is inte-
gral to the filler neck near the top of the reservoir.
The bright yellow plastic filler cap snaps over the
filler neck opening and seals the reservoir opening
with an integral rubber gasket. The filler cap is
labeled with an International Control and Display
Symbol icon for ªWindshield Washerº and the text
ªWasher Fluid Onlyº that are molded into it and
highlighted in black against the yellow plastic cap for
visibility.
There are dedicated holes near the bottom of the
rearward facing side of the reservoir provided for the
mounting of the washer pump/motor unit and the
washer fluid level switch. A snap post receptacle
molded into the reservoir allows for mounting of the
washer pump without the use of fasteners. The res-
ervoir also features an integral hose routing trough
on its rearward facing side. Except on models with a
diesel engine, the washer reservoir is secured to the
cooling module radiator shroud with three integral
tabs, two at the bottom and one at the top. The two
bottom tabs are inserted into two slots near the bot-tom of the shroud, while the upper tab slides into an
integral channel-like slot near the top of the shroud.
A molded lock feature on the forward facing surface
of the reservoir engages a molded depression on the
rearward facing surface of the radiator shroud when
the reservoir is fully seated on the shroud, locking
the unit securely in place. On models with a diesel
engine, the washer reservoir is secured with two
screws through integral mounting tabs to the left
vertical member of the radiator support. On many
models, a molded plastic coolant recovery container
or a coolant pressure container must be detached
from the top of the cooling module and moved aside
to access the washer fluid reservoir for service. This
may be accomplished without opening or draining the
engine cooling system.
OPERATION
The washer fluid reservoir provides a secure,
on-vehicle storage location for a large reserve of
washer fluid for operation of the washer system. The
washer reservoir filler neck provides a clearly
marked and readily accessible point from which to
add washer fluid to the reservoir. The washer/pump
motor unit is located in a sump area near the bottom
of the reservoir to be certain that washer fluid will
be available to the pump as the fluid level in the res-
ervoir becomes depleted. The washer pump/motor
unit is mounted in the lowest position in the sump.
The washer fluid level switch is mounted just above
the sump area of the reservoir so that there will be
adequate warning to the vehicle operator that the
washer fluid level is low, well before the washer sys-
tem will no longer operate.
