Ford F-150 - 1997-2003 :: Windshield Washer Fluid Low Warning Came On

I am posting this here as it is in reference to the 5.4 motor but in a 2001 Expedition.

My wife was driving our 2001 Expo the other day and the warning light came on that the windshield washer fluid was low. When she got home I popped the top the re fill the washer fluid and there was what appeared to be green coolant in the reservoir. It even smelled like coolant.

It filled the reservoir about half way which made me wonder why even though it was coolant it made the washer fluid light come on. I then checked the coolant reservoir and it had fluid in it but it looked brown and nasty. The motor is the 5.4. What is going on?

Ford F-150 (2009-2014) :: Windshield Washer Went Bad After Replacing Turn Signal

2014 lariat crew w/10k miles...let son drive it on date & somehow came back with snapped off turn signal/multi-switch...had local mechanic replace-now button on end doesn't activate wipers or washer spray (actual wiper switch works, as does dimmer function & signals). Mechanic rechecked & says all ok but switch may need to be programmed by dealer...really?? Seems like it would b plug-n-play. Why just the washer function wouldn't work?

Ford - Taurus :: 2003 - How To Check Windshield Washer Fluid Level

I would like to monitor the windshield washer fluid level on our '03 Ford Taurus. Unfortunately, the fill nozzle goes underneath a piece of the chassis and I can't tell where it goes or where the reservoir is located. The manual was of no use whatsoever. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, but I'm stumped.

Ford - Explorer :: 2003 - Motor On Windshield Washer Water Pump Shot / Check Gauge Light Go On

I recently purchased a 2003 Explorer. Two weeks after I bought it I found out the motor on the windshield washer water pump was shot. The dealership fixed it for free. About a week after I got it back when I was driving in the morning to work I noticed the check gauge light go on and saw that my temp gauge was pointed at HOT!! I pulled over and stopped immediately. As soon as I slowed down the temp gauge went back down to normal. It happened 2 or 3 more times and had it back at the dealership. They are stumped. They sent it to a Ford dealership and they couldn't find anything either.

They said they have checked everything and it is not overheating. They even put a thermometer on it while they drove it and it didn't get over 205* I am surprised it didn't do it to them because it happens almost every morning. I only work 4.3 miles from my house so its not like I am driving very far. It usually happens at about 3 miles. As soon as I see it going up (and I watch it a lot!!) I take my foot off the gas and start to slow down or barely press the brake it goes right back to normal. Then it stays at normal the rest of the day. Is it the sensor or the wiring or did the do something to it when the fixed the washer motor?

Passat (B5) :: 2003 - Rear Windshield Washer Not Working

Just bought a 2003 Passat wagon. The rear windshield washer wasn't working: when I used it, the fluid would stream straight back toward the car behind me. Fun for me, but other drivers were not so impressed.

I realized I was missing the plastic cap piece, so I ordered one and installed it. But now the stream just sort of shoots into the cap, and doesn't get on the window at all. I'm not sure if I'm missing another piece or what? The "nozzle" that's on there points straight back, but I don't see how this cap is supposed to "redirect" the flow.

Passat (B5) :: 2003 - Windshield Washer Fluid Lines Freeze Up

It seems that whenever it drops below 20 degrees, my windshield washer fluid lines freeze up on my '03, even though the blue stuff is proported to go down to minus 20 (the jug in my garage is still nice and liquid, even at these colder temps).

Is this a fixable problem? Should I switch over to a different type of juice? I don't remember this happening as frequently in previous years as it has this year.

Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: Windshield Washer Won't Spraying?

(04 FX4)... having issues with your windshield washer? The next to last time I used it, I got a dribble, so I figured that I needed fluid...added more fluid, but it was still half full, I pressed the button, I heard noise, probably the pump. but no fluid. Could it be something as simple as a clog? I could tear it apart.

Ford - Explorer :: 1996 - Windshield Washer Fluid Not Coming Out

I have a '96 explorer, v-8 5.0 ....

My windshield washer fluid has stopped coming out of the cleaning nozzles on the rear, driver's and passenger sides. I can hear the pump pumping and have disconnected the hose from the driver's side and ran the windshield cleaner system. Cleaning fluid came out of the hose easily. Then the hose for the rear was tested. Fluid came out of the hose.

The reservoir was emptied and checked to see if there was dirt that might be clogging the intake. It was clean. The nozzles where the cleaning fluid comes out were cleaned with a small wire from both ends. Also a bottle of compressed air was used and air was felt coming through easily. I am thinking the pump might have lost enough pressure that no fluid can be pushed hard enough to come through the very end before it gets sprayed on the windshield. What might be wrong?

Ford Excursion :: 2001 - No Power To Windshield Washer Pump?

2001 XLT V10 4x4 Excursion

If I push button for windshield washer the wipers come on but no fluid sprays on windshield. Same with rear....wiper comes on but no spray.

Jumped washer pump directly from battery and pump comes on and water squirted on windshield.

Had kids push washer button while I held volt meter on washer pump power and ground wires.....Nothing 0.0 volts at pump, but wipers came on.

All fuses are new, is there a relay? I did swap them around with no change.

Ford F-150 - 1997-2003 :: Windshield Wipers Randomly Come On Once In A While

My Windshield wipers randomly come on once in a while. I've noticed it more on a warmer day, but sometimes even when it is cold. There is really no pattern, sometimes the go once, sometimes they go for 2-3 minutes. Where should I start? Switch or wiper motor, maybe something else?
