Great information. I just replaced that pump on my 2001 Tahoe in less than 30 minutes using your instructions! I was able to remove the headlamp and turn signal assemblies to allow more natural light into the area.
Perfect video. Tried my windshield wipers yesterday nothing sprayed out so I looked into the reservoir looked empty. Went to auto parts bought a jug used it all, said that’s the issue it was empty. So after filling it tried the spray button again nothing! So I did what you said check voltage at connector had it. Went back to auto parts bought the pump and another jug of rain x, didn’t feel like catching previously poured rain x so I just let it drain to the ground. Installed the new pump filled it up again! Hit the button once nothing said oh damn now what!? Hit it two more times and spray finally came out! Now works perfectly again. Thanks man for this video!
Your video saved me a ton of time. I saw a vid on 1Auto titled "How to remove pump" when it should have said "How to install/remove reservoir and pump" instead. I have to admit that where my truck was parked made it easy to get under the bumper, but still would have been quicker using a jack to lift it, instead of removing the battery, tray, fender liner, and reservoir any day. I used a right angle tipped scribe to poke/remove the gromet/seal the pump sits in mostly because I couldn't see it but only feel it just out of sight. And connecting the electrical conn. before remounting the pump was a great idea!
Thank you for such a thorough video and explanation along with preventive things to do! I was just able to change my dad’s pump on his 07 classic in 45 mins!! Great video! Thank you
Thanks for the how to & tips Tony. Noticed the crack at the bottom of your windshield. That happen to mine also. 1st freeze after I bought the truck, I turned on the wipers ( which were froze to the window) to assist the defroster and heard a loud pop and had a crack side to side a couple inches off the bottom. Still haven't replaced it, and that was 17 years ago. What's better is I also have a round crack centered on the wind shield from where a golf ball hit it.
Thanks! Aside from being awkward to mess with, it was pretty easy. Mine wouldnt snap back in though. It was like the thing that clips it was loose or broke. Hope it doesnt cause an issue
@@JoshBenware Ahhh, I see. Yeah, the pump should just click into the reservoir itself. Your reservoir may be warped or something. I guess just keep an eye on it and make sure all your washer fluid isn't leaking out there the pump goes into the reservoir because of that.
@TonyTheTruckGuy 10-4. Perhaps a little silicone to hold it still. Just so hard to see up there. Thank you again! Vids like these have saved me so much money and grief. I appreciate your contributions!
Simple and to the point, Thanks. Was looking at removing the whole Res., But thought that seems like more work then would be necessary. Even though I removed the battery tray, because it was getting a bit crusty, so I figured I would give it a clean, and some new paint Take Care, and screw those trolls.
You have some comedy 🎭 to your videos 😂🤣 Appreciate it man. I gotta do this job soon. I feel like I’ve already done it once , after watching your 1/2 ass comedy takes.! You reminded me , of me. 🤣 at least I know my res is empty. But I need to check if it’s cracked or not. Thanks for posting man and I hit the Like 👍 and subscribe. I have a 2000 GMC short bed and a ‘91 GMC short bed.
@@TonyTheTruckGuy Yes, it's actually quite easy. But, you go ahead and keep laying on your back and trying to feel your way around to replacing a $15 part where you can't even see where it goes. Good luck with that, Cletus.
@@scottmisus4678 Good luck? I literally got it done in 15 minutes lmao. Meanwhile, the reservoir resulted in multiple rusty snapped bolts and over an hour of headache.
@@TonyTheTruckGuy Miss Scott was manstruating when he made these idiotic comments. The only thing leaking all over the ground for two years was his manstrual discharge.
tip if you take out the headlight cluster on the driver's side , you can access the pump from the top
I think that you did a GREAT job in showing and explaining how to replace the washer pump. KUDOS to you.
Thanks! Glad it was useful!

Thank you for sharing your information, I will be doing the replacement on my 2001 GMC Yukon Denali soon.
Son and I just used your video to replace washer fluid pump in his 03 Silverado. It was a huge help. Thanks a ton!
Glad I could help!

Haha 17 years!? Impressive! This one was cracked even before the owner before me got it 😂
Thanks Tony, saved me from having to remove the battery and the rest of that stuff.
Yeah all that is a pain. Glad I could help!
Man, real and detailed! Thank YOU!!!
Glad I could help!
I got the info I came here for, got a good laugh or two, and even a little extra info on the test-meter method.
Overall, good stuff!
Haha glad you like it
Thanks Boss I like your sense of humor will use your tip on mine soon .
Haha glad you liked it!

@@JoshBenware The electrical connector? Should be ok so long as it’s at least plugged in all the way.
@@TonyTheTruckGuy no, the post that snaps it into place to hold it

Seems easy and straight to the point to me. Clearly Scott is just a troll, I wouldn't have even replied to him lol
Some people just want to watch the world burn 😂
The fuse can be shorted out by running the pump with no water or running the pump when the water/fluid is frozen.
Simple and to the point, Thanks.

Take Care, and screw those trolls.
Haha, I appreciate it man! Yeah I actually already replaced the reservoir a few years back and it was a fight so I didn’t want to do that again 😂
@@TonyTheTruckGuy Don't blame you, yeah I sure miss working on the older rigs. Keep it Real my friend.
Very informative, thank you! Bummer about some of the comments here.
Thank you for this video. Great job and very much appreciated.
Thanks! Glad I could help!
Thank you for this great video. How long would you say it would take from start to finish when replacing the pump only from underneath the truck?
Depends how well you work with your hands but a half hour should be plenty I would think

Take the grille off the truck, you will see the horn there too, just another way to get to it without having to remove the battery
LOL just got the new one and ready to go!
Thanks. Nice job...
Spit on it. Bahaha. I thought I was on the wrong site, for a moment. You're a funny guy. Good video, though.
*cues drum intro* 😂 Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed!
My turn....thanks!
Mahalo!
Why not remove the reservoir and replace the pump with the reservoir on the bench?!
Remove an entire reservoir just to replace the pump? Seems extreme. Especially if you knew how fun it is to remove this reservoir.

What's the difference between "I got it done" and "I literally got it done?"
@@scottmisus4678 Would you like me to look up the definition of "literally" for you?
So, you saved $1.99 of washer fluid. Great. 🙄
I also didn't just let 2 gallons of washer fluid dump in the parking lot....2 birds with 1 stone.
@@TonyTheTruckGuy
But you are the same genius with the pump that's been leaking for 2 years, right, Cletus? 🤦🏻♂️
