Washer Reservoir: Operation

The washer fluid reservoir provides a secure, on-vehicle storage location for a large reserve of washer fluid for operation of the front and rear washer systems. The washer reservoir filler neck provides a clearly marked and readily accessible point from which to add washer fluid to the reservoir. The windshield washer pump is located in a sump area near the left front of the reservoir to be certain that washer fluid will be available to the washer pump as the fluid level in the reservoir becomes depleted. The windshield washer pump 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, before the washer system will no longer operate.
