12161216 Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Do you know if the rear wiper washer runs off a different pump than the front? Front works great/ rear does not have any fluid coming out. Nozzle does not look plugged up. Thanks James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamzan Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 It does run off a different pump. You should be able to hear it running if it's working. It's in the passenger wheel well area behind the splash guard IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northernpathy Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 There are two pumps on the reservoir. One by the other inside the front passenger wheel well. You have to pull out the front splash guard to get to it. You might have a pinched line going to the back. I had the same problem for the front a while ago. Could be that. Could also be a dead fuse or relay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OfftourRoadie96 Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 I had that problem on my 96.....mechanic basically took an air hose and blew down the line and mine started working again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12161216 Posted January 3, 2011 Author Share Posted January 3, 2011 Pulled lose the rear hose and blew into it. I could hear bubbles up front so the line is clear. I did not know there were two pumps so I more than likely have a bad one. I will check them out. Thanks for the help James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WOT Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 I have 3 extra ones from your year pathfinder if it is indeed a bad motor, used, but good working if you want one. Its fuse #19 in the fusebox at the driver side dash There is 2 pumps like said behind the passenger fender liner, the one closest to the outside of the car is for the rear. Very simple 2 wire connector and you can give it a pull out of the rubber gronmet in the bottom of the tank (all your fluid will gush out so be prepared or use it all on your windshield first) Very easy to test the motor once out aswell, just get a piece of spare speaker wire or something and put one wire to ground and tap the other wire to power, youll feel the motor wanna jump out of your hands if its good. Doesnt matter which terminal gets the power wire, it will just spin backwards if you mix them. I wouldnt suggest having it on out of water for more than a few seconds though, I dont think they like it Once you pull it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12161216 Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 Hey thanks for the offer, I just picked one up today at Advance Auto for $20. Oh well, strangely my original had two lines attached to it and the new one only had one for the fluid. I just attached the clear on that I had seen at the back and plugged up the other. It seems to work just fine. I have 3 extra ones from your year pathfinder if it is indeed a bad motor, used, but good working if you want one.
