Rear Washer Hoses And Tubes: Description
The rear washer plumbing consists of small diameter rubber hoses that are routed along with the front washer plumbing from the washer reservoir located at the left front corner of the engine compartment. Both reservoir hoses are attached to their respective front or rear outlet nipple of the washer pump/motor unit near the bottom of the reservoir. The rear hose is then connected to the body washer hose that is sheathed within molded plastic convolute tubing for protection and routed within the body wire harness along the left side of the inner fender to the dash panel.
The body wire harness containing the rear washer hose passes through a rubber grommet and a clearance hole in the dash panel into the passenger compartment. Within the passenger compartment, the body wire harness is routed along the left inner sill to the C-pillar, then up over the left rear wheel house to the D-pillar. The body rear hose is contained within and routed from the left cowl side inner panel to the liftgate with the body wire harness. The rear hose is then routed separately to the rear washer nozzle in the spoiler trim above the center of the liftgate glass opening.
Washer hose or tube 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 ineffective or damaged, they must be replaced.
