2008 Ford Focus Washer Reservoir Parts Q&A

• Q: How to service and repair the windshield washer reservoir on 2008 Ford Focus?

  A: The service and repair of the windshield washer reservoir requires initial remover of the filler neck bolt followed by placing the degas bottle aside after the two bolts are removed. Stand by prior to raising the vehicle on a hoist while the gear remains in neutral position and then detach the radiator lower air deflector. Read and follow the warning labels on the product before disconnecting the washer pump electrical connection while seeking immediate medical help in case of emergencies. The installation or removal of washer pump hoses must be done without hand tools because it protects against damage while you should drain the windshield washer fluid reservoir before it can spill. Submit the washer pump hose after twisting the lock ring 90 degrees because the connection should come loose smoothly. To reinstall correctly position the hose and protect it by not keeping the lock ring disassembled because it might become weakened. The windshield reservoir can be installed after windshield nut removal followed by removal of two bolts. Operation of the washer pump must be avoided until the windshield reservoir reaches a full liquid state in order to avoid pump damage.
