• Q: How to service the windshield washer pump and reservoir on 2005 Lincoln Aviator?

  A: The first step to service the windshield washer pump and reservoir is placing the vehicle on a hoist while keeping it in NEUTRAL gear position. You can bypass performing steps related to the air cleaner assembly and RF tire and wheel and RF splash shield when working on the washer pump alone. The service procedure starts with the air cleaner assembly and RF tire then wheel removal followed by the RF splash shield extraction by unscrewing the hardware and separating pin-type retainers when needed. The service for the windshield washer pump starts with draining washer solvent from washer hoses to a suitable container before disconnecting the pump electrical connector and sensor electrical connector. The procedure requires removal of three reservoir bolts which need tightening to 5 Nm (44 lb-in) before proceeding to take out the windshield washer pump and reservoir. The windshield washer pump installation begins with draining the washer solvent from the hoses before disconnecting the motor electrical connector. New windshield washer pump installation must preserve the rubber grommet and should always start the pump after filling the reservoir to prevent pump failure. After finishing you will replace the windshield washer pump as well as its seal by following the inverse order of what you did during removal.
