2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Hose

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 front washer pump/motor through the
front washer system plumbing and fittings to the two
front 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.
FRONT WASHER NOZZLE
DESCRIPTION
The two front washer nozzles have integral snap
features that secure them in dedicated holes in the
cowl plenum cover/grille panel located near the base
of the windshield. The domed upper surface of the
washer nozzle is visible on the top of the plenum cov-
er/grille panel, and the nozzle orifice is oriented
towards the windshield glass. The washer plumbing
fittings for the washer nozzles are concealed beneath
the cowl plenum cover/grille panel. These fluidic
washer nozzles are constructed of molded plastic. The
cowl plenum cover/grille panel must be removed from
the vehicle to access the nozzles for service. The
washer nozzles cannot be adjusted or repaired. If
faulty or damaged, they must be replaced.
OPERATION
The two front washer nozzles are designed to dis-
pense washer fluid into the wiper pattern area on the
outside of the windshield glass. Pressurized washer
fluid is fed to each nozzle from the washer reservoir
by the front washer pump/motor through a single
hose, which is attached to a barbed nipple on each
front washer nozzle below the cowl plenum cover/
grille panel. The washer nozzles incorporate a fluidic
design, which causes the nozzle to emit the pressur-
ized washer fluid as an oscillating stream to more
effectively cover a larger area of the glass area to be
cleaned.

FRONT WASHER PUMP/
MOTOR
DESCRIPTION
The front washer pump/motor unit is located on
the outboard side and near the front of the washer
reservoir, between the left front inner and outer
fender panels (Fig. 5). A small permanently lubri-
cated and sealed electric motor is coupled to the
rotor-type washer pump. A seal flange with a large
barbed inlet nipple on the pump housing passes
through a rubber grommet seal installed in one of
two dedicated mounting holes near the bottom of the
washer reservoir. The front washer pump/motor unit
is always mounted in the lower pump mounting hole
of the reservoir. A smaller barbed outlet nipple on the
pump housing connects the unit to the front washer
hose. The washer pump/motor unit is retained on the
reservoir by the interference fit between the barbedpump inlet nipple and the grommet seal, which is a
light press fit. An integral electrical connector recep-
tacle is located on the top of the motor housing. The
front washer pump/motor unit cannot be repaired. If
faulty or damaged, the entire washer pump/motor
unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The front washer pump/motor unit is connected to
the vehicle electrical system through a single take
out and two-cavity connector of the left headlamp
and dash wire harness. The washer pump/motor is
grounded at all times through a take out of the left
headlamp and dash wire harness with a single eyelet
terminal connector that is secured under a ground
screw to the top of the left inner fender shield in the
engine compartment. The front washer pump/motor
receives battery current on a fused ignition switch
output (run-acc) circuit through the closed contacts of
the momentary front washer switch within the right
multi-function switch only when the switch control
stalk is pulled towards the steering wheel. Washer
fluid is gravity-fed from the washer reservoir to the
inlet side of the washer pump. When the pump motor
is energized, the rotor-type pump pressurizes the
washer fluid and forces it through the pump outlet
nipple, the front washer plumbing, and the front
washer nozzles onto the windshield glass.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.

FRONT WIPER ARM
DESCRIPTION
The front wiper arms are the rigid members
located between the wiper pivots that protrude from
the cowl plenum cover/grille panel near the base of
the windshield and the wiper blades on the wind-
shield glass. These wiper arms feature an over-center
hinge that allows easy access to the windshield glass
for cleaning. The wiper arm has a die cast metal
pivot end with a large mounting hole with internal
serrations at one end. A molded black plastic cap fits
over the wiper arm retaining nut to conceal the nut
and this mounting hole following wiper arm installa-
tion. The wide end of a tapered, stamped steel chan-
nel hinges on and is secured with a hinge pin to the
blade end of the wiper arm pivot end. One end of a
long, rigid, stamped steel strap, with a small hole
near its pivot end, is riveted and crimped within the
narrow end of the stamped steel channel. The tip of
the wiper blade end of this strap is bent back under
itself to form a small hook. Concealed within the
stamped steel channel, one end of a long spring is
engaged with a wire hook on the underside of the die
cast pivot end, while the other end of the spring is
hooked through the small hole in the steel strap. The
entire wiper arm has a satin black finish applied to
all of its visible surfaces.
A wiper arm cannot be adjusted or repaired. If
damaged or faulty, the entire wiper arm unit must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The front wiper arms are designed to mechanically
transmit the motion from the wiper pivots to the
wiper blades. The wiper arm must be properly
indexed to the wiper pivot in order to maintain the
proper wiper blade travel on the glass. The mounting
hole formation with internal serrations in the wiper
arm pivot end interlocks with the serrations on the
outer circumference of the wiper pivot driver, allow-
ing positive engagement and finite adjustment of this

WIPER HIGH/LOW RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The wiper high/low relay is located in the Power
Distribution Center (PDC) in the engine compart-
ment near the battery. The wiper high/low relay is a
conventional International Standards Organization
(ISO) micro relay (Fig. 25). Relays conforming to the
ISO specifications have common physical dimensions,
current capacities, terminal patterns, and terminal
functions. The relay is contained within a small, rect-
angular, molded plastic housing and is connected to
all of the required inputs and outputs by five integral
male spade-type terminals that extend from the bot-
tom of the relay base.
The wiper high/low relay cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the unit must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The wiper high/low relay is an electromechanical
switch that uses a low current input from the Body
Control Module (BCM) to control a high current out-
put to the front wiper motor. The movable common
feed contact point is held against the fixed normally
closed contact point by spring pressure. When the
relay coil is energized, an electromagnetic field is
produced by the coil windings. This electromagnetic
field draws the movable relay contact point away
from the fixed normally closed contact point, and
holds it against the fixed normally open contact
point. When the relay coil is de-energized, spring
pressure returns the movable contact point back
against the fixed normally closed contact point. A
resistor is connected in parallel with the relay coil in
the relay, and helps to dissipate voltage spikes and
electromagnetic interference that can be generated as
the electromagnetic field of the relay coil collapses.
The wiper high/low relay terminals are connected
to the vehicle electrical system through a connector
receptacle in the Power Distribution Center (PDC).
The inputs and outputs of the wiper high/low relay
include:
²Common Feed Terminal- The common feed
terminal (30) is connected to the output of the wiper
on/off relay at all times through the wiper on/off
relay output circuit.
²Coil Ground Terminal- The coil ground termi-
nal (85) is connected to a control output of the Body
Control Module (BCM) through a front wiper high/
low relay control circuit. The BCM controls front
wiper motor operation by controlling a ground path
through this circuit.
²Coil Battery Terminal- The coil battery ter-
minal (86) receives battery current at all times from
a circuit breaker in the Junction Block (JB) through
a fused ignition switch output (run-acc) circuit.
