2001 Ford Focus Washer Pump Parts Q&A

• Q: How to service and repair the windshield washer pump and reservoir on 2001 Ford Focus?

  A: The washer reservoir servicing process starts with filtering the tank by undoing the air filter housing and removing its bolt along with the filler neck. First elevate the vehicle and unscrew the six bolts from the wheelhouse trim panel to remove it. Next in order are washer reservoir removal steps that involve unscrewing two bolts along side unhooking plugs after which the hoses come off. First disconnect the connector then detach the hoses while lifting out the washer pump together with the rubber gasket. You need to separate the connector before disconnecting the hoses and lifting out the headlamp wash pump as well as its rubber seal. The installation process requires users to attach an additional cap to the back vent tube of the reservoir while verifying proper alignment of front and rear ventilation tubes. The procedure for washer system water leakage during strong acceleration or strong deceleration should be properly followed when there are concerns about the filled windscreen washer reservoir. Reverse the installation process while filling the washer reservoir properly before you put in the reservoir with Vaseline on the filler neck. Conclude the procedure by checking that windscreen washers and headlamp washers are functioning correctly.
