Default Washer fluid tank

As i attempted to refill my windsheild washer fluid today, i noticed that it was dripping from the front bottom of my driver's side wheel well. I'm thinkin maybe the tank has a crack in it, because the leak was relative to that of a dripping faucet. And what makes it worse is that i cant get to the tank to work my duct tape wonders, nor can i even see where the tank is. This ever happen to anyone? Or at least, do you know how to get to the tank? TIA

Default Re: To remove the Washer fluid tank for repairs..............

You will need to remove the drivers side front tire. Then remove the plastic inner fender liner! BTDT! Twice! ;o)

You do not "have-to" remove the lower cover, but......

I had to patch mine twice so far!

To date the glue is holding, with "No leaks"! :O)

The washer fluid pumps go bad a lot of the time. It very well could be the pump. They are a bitch to get to...but they are in front of the Left front wheel housing (bottom)...Good luck
