Ford 8G1Z-17664-A Motor And Pump Assembly

As of 2008 models, start by disconnecting the battery's negative terminal cable. Note down where the Windshield Wiper Arms connect to the linkage shafts. Then you can remove their nuts. Start by unscrewing the plastic cowl covering, and get rid of the three bolts that connect the wiper linkage piece. Pull up slightly to separate the electric connector, then take away entire wiper-bulge assembly, including hard parts. Pull out the three bolts that hold the motor and the metal bar on the linkage arm. Take care to have the motor in the parking position before taking out the metal bar. Use your trim removal tool or screwdriver to carefully pull the linkage away from the motor's crank arm. Put the new motor back on the linkage, make sure all the bolts are tight, connect the electricity correctly, all the while keeping tools and extra stuff away. Before removing anything else, rotate the wipers with the ignition on so the motor moves to its parking position. After putting everything back in its place, adjust the Windshield Wiper Arms: position the passenger blade 1.5 inches high and the driver's blade 2 inches high. Hit the switch once more to view how well the wipers align. Adjust them if needed. To get at the Windshield Washer Reservoir or pump for replacement, take off the lower front air deflector shield and right side inner fender splash shield. Pull off the fluid sensor and Windshield Washer Pump connections, then unplug the Windshield Washer Pump and let the tank empty of fluid. Take off the bottom screw holding the reservoir, the two round washers, and then carefully lift the reservoir directly from below. If the Windshield Washer Pump needs replacing, remove the damaged rubber grommet that keeps it in place along the tank. Installation is the reverse of removal.
