Where is the windshield fluid washer pump located?

[talontsiboy24]

I have a 92 eagle talon and im wondering where is the windshield fluid pump located because only my rear is shooting water out but not the front does that mean i need a new pump or it can be its not hooked up?

 

[turbotalon31]

it is in the drivers side wheel well in the front the filler part is right in front of the power steering container

I thought it was in the trunk cause when i went lookin for a new washer pump it had 2 ports on it for the rear and front sprayers?

You thought wrong. It is inside the driver's side wheel well behind the front bumper just like turbotalon31 said.

It's way past my bedtime and I'm confusing cars, nevermind.

What? On my 1G the front windshield fluid pump is attached to the bottom of the reservoir that's attached to the battery tray. I forget to plug the connector in all the time and then have to go pull the battery tray so I can reach it.

so i should look below the battery or around it? Maybe its not plugged in huh?

Do I sense sarcasm?

No sarcasm, I was confused and wasn't going outside at 2am last night to check.

I did this morning to discover I was having a senior moment. What I was remembering was the location of the wiper pump on my Stealths. The one on DSM is where you said and I've never had to mess besides filling it with it so it didn't make that much of an impression on me.

It's part of the reservoir for the washer fluid. It's attached to the bottom of it. I'd make sure the nozzles on the hood aren't clogged before you go tearing other things apart.

How can i check if they are clogged or not? Also if the motor was bad then the rear fluid wouldnt squirt out either right? cause only the rear squirts out but no the front.

 

[ramsack]

The rear squirter has its own motor and own tank, and own button. Just disconnect the hose from the nozzles to test.

 

[talontsiboy24]

When i press the button to for it to spray out i see water dripping out from the sprayers on the hood so does that mean the sprayers are clogged?

 

[ramsack]

The nozzles or the hose are clogged. You need something like a pin for sewing (very hard steel) to get in the nozzles.

 

[talontsiboy24]

yea i put a pin into the nossles and it started spraying thank god cause winter is here and yea def need that! But the fluid is leaking down my hood when i spray my windows is that normal cause i aint likin that

 

[ramsack]

Well it's not going to hurt anything for it to get on your car, but I don't 100% follow what you're meaning when you say the fluid is running down your hood.

ok the fluid sprays on my windshield but there fluids leaking down my hood from the sprayers when there spraying cause i guess there not shooting out correctly? should i just keep the sprayers shooting out and maybe it will spray better?

 

[ramsack]

Are they all spraying? I haven't observed mine but it sounds normal.

yea there all spraying but i notice windshield fluid is on the floor on both sides of the car when i spray it for a while? is it cause the fluid sliding back down the window into the drainage area? also the drivers side sprayer the right hole in it seems to spray high like on top of my roof can i get that fixed somehow?
