Washer pump dead...?

Just thought I'd share this because it shows that some nagging problems have very simple solutions.

 

Early this week, my windshield washer pump suddenly quit on my 2010 SEL (fluid level was good). I was way to busy at work to deal with it and certainly too busy to spend any time at the dealer messing with warranty claims. Anyway, today (Saturday) I found some time to lift the hood and see what was what. It turns out that the hose connection at the hood had simply popped off the connector. 10 seconds to slip it back on and another minute to secure it with a tie-wrap so it won't happen again.

 

I love a happy ending!

Glad it worked out for you!

 

My Bonneville had hoses running to each wiper that always came disconnected, and I had a hood mount tube on my Taurus have an aneurysm in hot weather (no clue), so I'm no stranger to wiper hose problems. ;)
