Hi all, fellow TV.com member just signed up here! I am having a problem with my front windshield washer and I am pretty confident it is due to a bad pump. I started noticing last year that the front washer only worked intermittently. Now it just doesn't work at all anymore. The rear washer works fine but when I activate the front one I hear no sound coming from the front pump. I swapped the fuses between the front and rear, but the rear washer still worked with the fuse of the front washer, so it is not a bad fuse. I was able to remove the airbox, but how do I get the bad pump out? There is a hose connected to the pump. When I pull off the hose the windshield fluid starts flowing out of the pump and all over the engine compartment. Is there a way I can avoid that? I would really appreciate it if you could give me a procedure on how to do this - pictures would be a plus too. I am not very good with working on cars yet but I am trying to learn. Unfortunately my search didn't yield good results.
Oh and also, I am going to get the ACDelco part (10386722). Is there any reason I should avoid this and get a different part?
Thanks!
