Windshield Washer Repair - Replacing the Dispenser Line and Pump
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
For about two years (yikes!), my windshield washer fluid wouldn't dispense on my 2012 Chrysler Town and Country. I finally got around to repair it, and learned both a failed pump and a broken dispenser line were the culprits. This is a relatively simply repair, despite being difficult to reach.

You are an inspiration. My line just broke the same way in a different spot, and now the system is spewing washer fluid out over my left shoulder when I try to wash windows. I love to see a woman of my age just going for it - gives me hope I can manage this one myself, too!!

You are my people!
Thank you! I couldn’t see on many other videos because their hands were in the way.
You are a very talented lady and I think you can be a grade A Auto repair girl. Keep up the great work 👍
Just successfully changed mine today! Total cost$15. Thanks so much for your video!
I love it. Got my blazer paid off so I feel the same way. Keep her running
Well, you just answered my question to a quick fix. Thanks for sharing and have a great day!
Thanks so much, very helpful! Such a good feeling when it works again!
Absolutely bought my pump and ready to install, thanks
You made my day! Not only did I laugh 😂 at your comments (can so relate!) but have some insights into my washer fluid issue. Think it’s the pump/motor…sigh…Appreciate your video 👍
Hello,there's a 1/8×1/8 connector piece that works,also small diameter rubber hose.Instead of dismantling the entire line.With the small rubber hose make sure you connect the more difficult broken piece first,in my case it was the line coming up where it broke.The line coming down was more easier to slide on. Moistened ends will slide on more quick.
VERY entertaining....and informative! Nice job.
First time watching your video and i just love it. You are awesome!🎉 Love from Ghana.
Omg you’re my new favorite person 🤣 I broke the nozzle piece too!

@@katieyarbrough4658, me 3 on breaking that spray nozzle. I'm trying to keep my Dad's old 1995 Dodge Dakota pickup truck going because it's great to haul my kayak to the lake in. Any video taping at this place would be painful to watch, but, I've saved a lot of money.
Yeah I have broken tube / hose same place thanks for your help ❤
Thanks for the informative video. Very useful 👍
“ It’s important to put things in the right hole” How true😅
The video I was looking for I just bought one off Amazon and will be changing my this weekend.

@@ChickFixUSA, I wish you were my neighbor--we could be a pain in the butt to the HOA together!!! They changed our rules to once you start a vehicle repair it must be finished in 24 hrs. I'm debating on whether or not to try to change the windshield wiper bushings for the 2nd time in 5 yrs. Also, need to replace the fluid tubing and a broken spray nozzle. I think I'll go for it :)
Thanks for sharing, a good video
OMG! Do I have to crawl under my car to fix this? I want to cry as I am dealing with a messed up broken wrist and cataracts! But at least I know what to do now on my 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan which has been without washer fluid spray for a couple months now. Just pulled the wheel well panel thinking the pump was hiding there from one KZread video but now see it was for a 2006 model and the repair book i just purchased for $27 at Auto Zone just tells you where to put washer fluid in! That's it. No mention of fuses or pump locations, nothing! Like Duh! So annoyed right now! But thank you for at least showing me it can be done. Hope I can get up once I'm done! LOL!
You may want to consider changing wire out for zip tie. The wire will rub a hole in the plastic.

You go girl!! I should record when i work on my vehicle's. The guys that stop when i have my hood up... thanks but i got this! 😂
Woohoo, thank you 👍🏾🦘🤎
You are awesome!!!!! I need to replace my washer fluid pump....it looks like a paint in the a$$ but I can do it!!!!!
Its long overdue but you could've cut a piece of the rubber tubing to make a coupling for the tee going into the spray nozzles.
Thank you! Also how big is the tube? 1/8in? Also why did you choose a whole new tube instead of just buying a connector?
I ordered the same kit on Amazon it came with the hose and nozzles and plastic adapters nozzles were easy to replace the only problem I have the fluid doesn’t come out properly so I think there’s pieces of plastic still stuck somewhere inside the hose and I need to somehow separate the hose so I can properly fit the plastic adapters it came with which I am having a problem with separating them. How did you separate yours mine seem to be really stuck together? 🤔
A couple different reasons?
Mine’s a 2013. Will your directions apply?
Dear Chickfix, Hello lovely lady. Do you still have your van?
hhahhahaaaaaaaa i really like the video, you are super talented women that's fantastic 👌👌👍👍

I 2nd that 💯. Gotta love a woman with dirty fingernails and a sense of humor! I just replaced the pulse board for the wiper motor on my 2007 Chevy Trailblazer and I broke off the fluid sprayer line connector on the underside of the cowl on the passenger side just like you did - Ugh!
