WASHER SYSTEM
The washer system components should be
inspected periodically, not just when washer perfor-
mance problems are experienced. This inspection
should include the following points:
(1) Check for ice or other foreign material in the
washer reservoir. If contaminated, clean and flush
the washer system. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
FRONT WIPERS/WASHERS - CLEANING).
(2) Inspect the washer plumbing for pinched, leak-
ing, deteriorated, or incorrectly routed hoses and
damaged or disconnected hose fittings. Replace dam-
aged or deteriorated hoses and hose fittings. Leaking
washer hoses can sometimes be repaired by cutting
the hose at the leak and splicing it back together
using an in-line connector fitting. Similarly, sections
of deteriorated hose can be cut out and replaced by
splicing in new sections of hose using in-line connec-
tor fittings. Whenever routing a washer hose or a
wire harness containing a washer hose, it must be
routed away from hot, sharp, or moving parts. Also,
sharp bends that might pinch the washer hose must
be avoided.
FRONT CHECK VALVE
DESCRIPTION
A front washer system check valve is standard
equipment on this model. The front check valve is
integral to the front washer nozzle plumbing wye fit-
ting located in the cowl plenum beneath the cowl ple-
num cover/grille panel near the base of the
windshield. The check valve consists of a molded
plastic body with a round center section. Three
barbed hose nipples are formed in a wye configura-
tion on the outside circumference of the center sec-
tion of the valve body. Within the check valve body, a
small check valve operated by a small coiled spring
restricts flow through the unit until the valve is
unseated by a predetermined inlet fluid pressure.
The front check valve cannot be adjusted or repaired
and, if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.
OPERATION
The front check valve provides more than one func-
tion in this application. It serves as a wye connector
fitting between the cowl grille panel and washer noz-
zle sections of the front washer supply hose. It also
prevents washer fluid from draining out of the front
washer supply hoses back to the washer reservoir.
This drain-back would result in a lengthy delay from
when the front washer switch is actuated until
washer fluid was dispensed through the front washer
nozzles, because the front washer pump would have
to refill the front washer plumbing from the reservoir
to the nozzles. Finally, the front check valve prevents
washer fluid from siphoning through the front
washer nozzles after the front washer system is
turned Off. When the front washer pump pressurizes
and pumps washer fluid from the reservoir through
the front washer plumbing, the fluid pressure over-
rides the spring pressure applied to the check valve
and unseats the valve, allowing washer fluid to flow
toward the front washer nozzles. When the front
washer pump stops operating, spring pressure seats
the check valve and fluid flow in either direction
within the front washer plumbing is prevented.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove the wiper arms from the wiper pivots.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/FRONT WIPERS/WASH-
ERS/FRONT WIPER ARMS - REMOVAL).
(3) Open the hood and pull the hood to plenum
seal off of the forward flanges of the cowl grille cover
and the plenum panel.

FRONT WASHER HOSES/
TUBES
DESCRIPTION
The front washer plumbing consists of a small
diameter rubber hose that is routed from the barbed
outlet nipple of the front washer pump/motor on the
washer reservoir along the filler neck into the engine
compartment. In the engine compartment, a molded
plastic in-line fitting with barbed nipples joins the
washer hose to another section of hose that is routed
near the left headlamp and dash wire harness to the
cowl plenum area. The engine compartment washer
hose passes from the engine compartment into the
cowl plenum area through a dedicated hole with a
rubber grommet near the left end of the cowl plenum
panel. A molded plastic elbow fitting with barbed nip-
ples joins the engine compartment hose to the cowl
grille cover hose. The cowl grille cover washer hose is
routed through routing clips on the underside of the
cowl grille cover to a molded plastic wye fitting with
barbed nipples and an integral check valve. The cowl
grille cover hose is connected to one nipple on the
wye fitting and the two washer nozzle hoses are con-
nected to the other two wye fitting nipples. The

outer panel near the base of the liftgate glass.²Rear Wiper Arm Park Ramp- The molded
rubber rear wiper arm park ramp is secured with a
screw to the liftgate outer panel, just below the right
side of the liftgate glass. When the rear wiper system
is not in operation, the rear wiper arm is parked on
this ramp so that it will not interfere with or be
damaged by liftgate flip-up glass operation.
²Rear Wiper Blade- The single rear wiper
blade is secured to the rear wiper arm, and is moved
off of the liftgate glass when the rear wiper system is
not in operation.

WJREAR WIPERS/WASHERS 8R - 33
along the left roof side rail to the rear of the vehicle.
At the rear of the vehicle, the headliner hose is
routed above the headliner and along the upper lift-
gate opening panel toward the right side of the vehi-
cle. The headliner hose then passes through a hole
with a rubber grommet in the upper liftgate opening
panel and through another hole with a rubber grom-
met into the upper inner liftgate panel to the rear
washer nozzle.
Washer hose is available for service only as roll
stock, which must then be cut to length. The head-
liner washer hose is integral to the headliner unit
and, if faulty or damaged, the headliner unit must be
replaced. 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 rear washer pump/motor through the
rear washer system plumbing and fittings to the rear
washer nozzle on the liftgate outer panel above the
liftgate glass. 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.
REAR WASHER NOZZLE
DESCRIPTION
The rear washer nozzle is a fluidic type unit that
includes an integral check valve (Fig. 3). The nozzle
is constructed of molded plastic and has a rubber
seal and integral snap features on the back of it. The
nozzle is secured by a snap fit in a dedicated mount-
ing hole in the liftgate outer panel above the liftgate
flip-up glass. Within the rear nozzle body, a small
check ball is held against an integral valve seat at
the inlet end of the nozzle by a small coiled spring.
The rear washer nozzle and check valve unit cannot
be adjusted or repaired. If faulty or damaged, the
entire nozzle and check valve unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The rear washer nozzle is designed to dispense
washer fluid into the wiper pattern area on the out-
side of the liftgate glass. Pressurized washer fluid is
fed to the nozzle from the washer reservoir by the
rear washer pump/motor through a single hose,
which is attached to a barbed nipple on the back of
the rear washer nozzle. The rear washer nozzle
incorporates a fluidic design, which causes the nozzle
to emit the pressurized washer fluid as an oscillating
stream to more effectively cover a larger area of the
glass area to be cleaned. The integral rear nozzle
check valve prevents washer fluid from draining out
of the rear washer supply hoses back to the washer
reservoir. This drain-back would result in a lengthy
delay from when the rear washer switch is actuated
until washer fluid was dispensed through the rear
washer nozzle, because the rear washer pump would
have to refill the rear washer plumbing from the res-
ervoir to the nozzle. The check valve also prevents
washer fluid from siphoning through the rear washer
nozzle after the rear washer system is turned Off.
When the rear washer pump pressurizes and pumps
washer fluid from the reservoir through the rear
washer plumbing, the fluid pressure overrides the
spring pressure applied to the check ball within the
valve and unseats the check ball, allowing washer
fluid to flow to the rear washer nozzle. When the
rear washer pump stops operating, spring pressure
seats the check ball in the valve and fluid flow in
either direction within the rear washer plumbing is
prevented.
REMOVAL
The check valve for the rear washer nozzle is inte-
gral to the nozzle.
(1) Using a trim stick or another suitable wide
flat-bladed tool, gently pry at the sides of the rear
washer nozzle to release the snap features that
secure it in the mounting hole of the liftgate outer
panel.
