Molded plastic quick-connect fittings join sections of the high pressure headlamp washer plumbing. To disconnect this fitting:
- Push the molded plastic female half of the quick-connect fitting toward the male half quick-connect nipple of the headlamp washer pump, headlamp washer nozzle or other plumbing fitting.
- While still pushing the two halves of the connector toward each other, squeeze or pinch the ribbed retainers on each side of the female half of the quick-connect between your thumb and forefinger.
- Finally, pull the female half of the quick-connect fitting straight back from the male half quick-connect nipple to disconnect.NOTE:
When connecting the quick-connect fitting, align the female half of the fitting to the male half of the fitting. Do not attempt to connect using an angled approach. Push the two halves together until an audible click is heard.
