Operating Instruction

Basic Operation:

  • To activate the pump, engage your vehicle's windshield washer function. This is typically done via a lever on the steering column or a button on the dashboard. Refer to your vehicle's owner's manual for specific controls.
  • Upon activation, the pump will draw washer fluid from the reservoir and deliver it under pressure to the windshield washer nozzles, allowing for effective cleaning.
  • Ensure the washer fluid reservoir is adequately filled to guarantee continuous and effective operation of the pump.

Maintenance

The ACI 177116 Windshield Washer Pump is designed for long-term reliability and typically requires minimal direct maintenance. However, regular checks of the overall windshield washer system are recommended to ensure optimal performance.

  • Fluid Level: Regularly check and refill the windshield washer fluid reservoir. It is crucial to use a high-quality, non-freezing washer fluid during colder months to prevent damage to the pump and lines.
  • Hose Inspection: Periodically inspect all washer fluid hoses for signs of wear, cracks, kinks, or leaks. Ensure all connections remain secure.
  • Nozzle Check: Verify that the windshield washer nozzles are not clogged and are directing fluid effectively onto the windshield. If clogged, they can often be cleared with a thin wire or pin.
  • Pump Sound: Pay attention to any unusual noises emanating from the pump during operation. A change in sound could indicate a blockage, air in the system, or a potential malfunction.
