2007 Mercury Mariner Washer Reservoir Parts Q&A

• Q: How to service and repair the windshield washer reservoir on 2007 Mercury Mariner?

  A: Service and repair operations on the windshield washer reservoir start with placing the vehicle onto a hoist within the neutral gear position. Begin the windshield washer reservoir service by removing the right-hand front fender splash shield together with disconnecting the windshield pump and rear window washer pump electrical connectors. All safety measures present on the windshield washer solution container label should be followed to protect against personal injury because this solution contains poisonous methanol. A proper spillage prevention technique involves removing the windshield washer liquid first then disconnecting the pump hoses of both front and rear washers. You should first remove the Washington windshield washer reservoir by removing its two bolts before pulling it out but keep the bolts at 6 Nm (53 lb-in) during reinstallation. Find out and understand the warning about methanol contained in the washer solution. Operating the windshield or rear window washer pumps needs to be avoided when the windshield washer reservoir remains empty since it can lead to pump premature failure. Reinstall the windshield washer reservoir by filling it with washer fluid through its installation process.
