I was attempting to add this picture to this topic

 

http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/topic/27661-wd21-windshield-washer-pump-blues/page-2

 

but as luck would have it the topic got locked.

 

 

 

So I wrote a message to the OP / moderator and after I was all done and tried to send it and I got this.

 


The following errors were found

The member Precise1 cannot receive any new messages

So here is my picture it is off a Nissan pathfinder 91

They're incredibly simple pumps aren't they? The only fault is the seal between the pump and motor housing. The alcohol in the washer fluid breaks down the rubber and then it slowly leaks inside the motor. Once it gets hot under the hood the alcohol slowly evaporates and then the water that'd left rusts and corrodes the motor and also causes the small bearing to rust and seize.

I picked up a generic Trico pump off Rockauto when I got tired of limping the one in my '95. I had to butcher the plug a little to make it fit with the stock plug but it worked in the end. They do come with the proper plug end, if you want to do it that way.

Its the first motor I have ever pulled apart so I an glad this is a simple one.

 

In the previous link they talk about replacements and I think it was just easier to repair this one. Granted its only a few weeks repaired but still going strong.

 

again I recommend seeing the previous locked discussion, Link in OP
