Hi, Can anyone tell me how to remove & re-install the windshield washer resevoir on my 2000XJ8 ? The lines are clear and the resevoir is full but I can't hear the pump running when I push the button. Checked fuses & they seem fine. Not sure about any relays involved. Any guideance will be greatly appreciated.
Thank You,

 

Am I in the wrong place for this question. Being a newbe, not real sure where to list this question. Really need to have some help on this one before I do something wrong trying to get to the windshield washer resevoir. Thanks guys, need your help.

 

You need to remove the chin tray under the front bumper and the RH wheel arch liner. It is best to remove the front wheel, from there you will be able to get at the motor. It is likely that it has just given up the ghost, very easy to replace. Hope this helps.

 

Hi
I extracted the Windshield Washer Pump removal & install from the Jaguar shop manual and created this PDF file:

XJ [X308] Windshield Washer Pump R&I.pdf

Please note that I could not find the referenced RH Wheel Arch Liner Removal Section - But you can use the Illustration and parts list about the Wheel Arch Liner below.

Here are 2 JPEG files I created from the JEPC (Jaguar Electronic Parts Catalog):

1st one is a parts list & diagram that includes the Wheel Arch Liner:




Next one is the Windshield Washer Pump system parts list & diagram:




Hope this helps
