How to service and repair the windshield washer reservoir on Ford Flex?

The first step to work on the windshield washer reservoir consists of taking off the washer reservoir cap. Place the vehicle in neutral position before hoisting it for removal of the right-hand front fender splash shield. The next step involves removing both right-hand reinforcement bracket-to-fender bolts before taking out the right-hand reinforcement bracket bolts connected to the body and then the right-hand fender reinforcement bracket. The service begins by detaching the wire harness pin-type retainer then disconnecting the washer pump electrical connector along with the washer fluid level sensor electrical connector and right-hand fog lamp electrical connector when present. The first step is reading all cautions listed on the product label while consulting medical professionals about emergency care. The prevention of washer fluid spillage requires emptying the reservoir before loosening the components and disconnecting the hoses that provide fluid to the pump. The washer reservoir can be installed after tightening two reservoir nuts and the bolt to 9 Nm (80 lb-in). Operation of the washer pump before adding fluid to the reservoir should be avoided because it can lead to premature failure of the pump. Finishing the installation requires following removal steps backward and adding washer fluid to the reservoir.
