Hi listers,
While waiting for my front washer pump to arrive I’ve been doing some work on the rear washer.
I’ve replaced a broken hose from pump to sprayer.
i’ve gotten all wires and hose into position and now face a problem.
I purchased a replacement grommet for the hatch where the spraer hose and wiper motor wires go.
I can’t for the life of me, even using dish soap get the ends of the grommet into place. Has anyone successfully replaced one of these?
All is in place but I can’t get the ends to match the holes in the van and hatch. Is this some special string trick again?
Next I can’t see how I’m going to get the new hose on the rear sprayer nozzle. I don’t have a spare so need to be gentle?
Is there a way to remove it so the hose can come through the hole then be placed on the sprayer nozzle?
Just don’t see how I can get my hand in there to fix it.
so, two things needed.
Tip for grommet install
Tip for wiper Nozzle removal or trick to install hose while in place.
