How to Replace Windshield Washer Pump - Dodge Caravan - DIY

[@neilwright2192]

Repair shop wanted to charge me $200 for this repair on my 2006 Town and Country…after watching this I’m confident I can do it myself. Thanks for posting!

[@RiverLifeWV]

Glad I could help. That's exactly why I made this video.

[@cantfinditgrindit]

Thanks for the video ! I just troubleshot my 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan and had a problem with no fluid coming out of the rear window nozzle. I could hear the pump turning but no fluid. The carpet behind the very back seats was wet. There is a hose connector under that carpet that came off. I put that back on and it works fine. The pump serves both front and rear windows- the hose on the left goes to the rear and the hose on the right goes to the front. The pump direction of rotation just changes depending on which switch is pressed. Great video man.

Hi, glad you were successful. Thanks for the additional information/troubleshooting!

[@timhinds9089]

Before you assume the pump is bad try blowing it out with a compressor. My mechanic told me it was bad and it would cost several hundred yo replace. I went home and disconnected the hose and blew it both ways. It worked better than it ever has.

[@jamespearce7954]

Great video. Very simple operation. One thing I would recommend is to replace the rubber bushing with new one. Once a washer pump has been in the vehicle for years the rubber bushing gets hard and they have a tendency not to always reseal around the new pump fitting. Did this once myself and found later it was leaking around the old bushing. Put in the new bushing no more leak. Makes sense to replace it an do the procedure once.

[@rasheedaqeel]

It was just like you said. It took 20 minutes from start to finish. I took my tire off for more room. Saved me $200 bucks. Thanks for the video.

[@RiverLifeWV]

That's good news!

[@WoundedEgo]

+Aqeel Rasheed You can also use the steering wheel to turn the wheel to the left so it is out of the way.

[@catfishphil]

While the pump is out, flush the reservoir with lots of water to clear out all the crud. It was amazing to see all the murky stuff come out of the hole where the pump is mounted.

[@joebarrera3239]

Good thinking

[@strife01104]

Thank you for the video. Because of it...I was successful in replacing my own part this afternoon.

[@edmundsabo9631]

[@RiverLifeWV]

[@richiev63]

Thanks for the video. I'll be replacing the pump on my wife's van this weekend.

[@edgutowski8783]

Great video! Replaced mine today...

[@mediascriptproductions3231]

Just had a mechanic estimate it would take about an hour ($150). Hmmmmm? Two screws and you're in. I thank you and my checkbook thanks you too.

[@SethCrosby]

Thanks so much!! Sometimes people have two pumps, one for the front and one for the rear windshield. It's the same basic principle though.

[@wabblewater]

Thanks. That was very helpful.

[@daveporter4667]

Thank you SIR!

[@RiverLifeWV]

You are welcome!

[@crocketgsxr6]

I have a 2001 and only the front isn't working(the pump doesn't kick on). I know this is an easy fix but didn't know if only one side of the pump could fail

[@leroygutierrez3948]

Thank you

[@RiverLifeWV]

You are very welcome. Glad to help!

[@walenciak]

Coke Zero? Blech. Just joshin, thanks for video, I'll tackle this weekend.

[@victorlaguna9003]

I see now what's wrong with mine. I always thought it was a fuse or something. Great video, thanks for the info.

[@holam7679]

Thank. Very good .

[@mvlr100]

[@annoythedonkey]

Thanks dude!

[@joshbateman9731]

thanks a lot I did not know appreciate the advice

[@AKM1LOVE]

Awesome so simple thank u

[@aldrinr.2818]

Thanks!

[@WoundedEgo]

Great vid, thanks for posting. Instead of draining the fluid you could just stick the new pump on the hose right away.

[@galefillinger6242]

But when you pull the pump out of the reservoir the fluid is going to run out.

[@WoundedEgo]

Gale Fillinger Ah, it must be different from mine.

[@glenprovenzano6956]

The Dodge dealer quoted me $850.00 to replace the windsheild washer motor in my 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan!

[@hayderalmumar4434]

That is a kind of dealership terrorism

[@jptang1701]

I've got a 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan. The windshield washer reservoir is on the driver's side. Pump should be in the driver's side wheel well?

[@TechiePocket1]

Thanks

[@danamccarty4542]

I see how you installed that but how about the wire

[@davidr9369]

Thank you.

[@juanpogomez7867]

Thanks a lot for the video, I have a question, what is the other thing that is connected on the reservoir next to the pump?

[@markjaczko8184]

Level sensor

[@whymelord379]

Where can I get diagrams on the valves & plumbing for the fluid lines to the windshield. My rear window works my front wind doesn't.

[@aldenpines]

My pump on my 2015 Caravan doesn't run, but neither do the wipers come on like they should. The wipers work fine by themselves. I'm wondering whether there's a switch which keeps the wipers from coming on if the pump has failed. Anybody know?

[@wreckerjonny6144]

I changed switch and pump from a operating system . Now it does not work still! Tested fuses all good. Tested pump. No power to pump . So where should I go now. Integrated fuse box ?

[@rafaelcorado4535]

Good video. On my 2002 Gran Caravan there is two separate pumps, one white and one black. I did replace the pump but it still doesn't work. I can't hear the pump, at this point not sure what it could be. Could the fuse/relay be an issue? If yes, which one as I check them and they are all good.

[@RiverLifeWV]

Rafael Corado I'm not very knowledgeable about the 2002 models. Sorry! Maybe ask at an auto parts store?

[@deverafam6676]

Pump works for rear but not the front. Is the pump still faulty or is it another issue?

[@RiverLifeWV]

Hmm. When my pump quit, it quit for both the front and rear windshields.

[@kathyrailey7775]

Do you know if the 2003 Dodge Caravan pump is located in the same place?

[@jefffuehr366]

was the pump your problem? or was it a fuse?

[@joshbateman9731]

will this work for the rear washer also cause my front and rear washers does not work at all i checked the fuses and all good

[@RiverLifeWV]

I believe the pump serves both the front and rear windows.

[@dalesworld1308]

On my 2002 T&C there are two separate pumps.

[@hamishr2367]

You never mentioned if the rear washer worked

[@kiwirangerchannel]

Mate you need some new wiperblades

[@rethyn]

Thank you

You're welcome. I hope it was helpful!
