2003 Ford Escort Washer Reservoir Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service the windshield washer reservoir on the front sedan on 2003 Ford Escort?

  A: You must first disconnect the ground cable of the battery along with the engine sub-harness connectors when performing service work on the windshield washer reservoir of the front sedan. First remove the engine sub-harness bolt to prepare the assembly when setting it aside. Begin by removing the two bolts on the windshield washer reservoir before lifting it upward to remove it. Disconnect both the electrical pump connector along with hose attachment of the windshield washer system before collecting the washer solvent into a suitable container. Remove the windshield washer pump from the reservoir yet dispose of the worn pump to reservoir seal for inspection. Before filling the windshield washer reservoir you must avoid making any electrical connections then wait until the reservoir reaches its maximum capacity before starting the pump operation. Driving several kilometers (at least 10 miles) is necessary for the vehicle to adapt its behavior after battery replacement. Normal driving behavior will be restored following the learning process. End the installation process by doing the opposite of what was done during removal.
