2009 Ford Focus Washer Pump Parts Q&A

• Q: How to service and repair the windshield washer pump and reservoir on 2009 Ford Focus?

  A: The washer-fluid reservoir filler neck bolt requires removal followed by positioning the coolant overflow bottle to the side while unscrewing its two bolts. First place the vehicle in neutral position after which position it on a hoist system then remove the radiator lower air deflector. Before starting service on the washer pump connect its electrical connector while following the warning label directions then obtain medical help during emergency conditions. The proper handling of the washer pump hose requires no hand tools during installation or removal and emptying the windshield washer reservoir will stop any spills. A 90-degree twist of the lock ring will disconnect the washer pump hose safe for simple hose removal. Reinstall the hose by fully seating it and tightening the lock ring into position because open ring placement may lead to its weakening. The windshield reservoir must be removed by unscrewing the nut followed by disconnecting the two bolts before tightening it to 5 Nm (44 lb-in). Windshield washer pump operations must be postponed until the reservoir contains fluid to avoid premature pump failure. The repair should end with a reverse order of steps.
