Washer Pump removal ???

[rstewart25]

Hey guys,

New to this forum. I have a 99 Tahoe LT 4WD with the 5.7. My front window washer pump is not working. The washer bottle is covered by another factory battery box of sorts. I can't seem to remove the box! I have removed the bolt from the fender side, and released the 2 clips on the radiator side, but it will not pop out.

What am I missing? I use this other box for aux batt storage, so I don't want to break it off?????????????

Thanks

Are there any bolts that you have to access from inside the box?

There are not any other connectors visable from the engine compartment...as far as I can see.....???? Other than the ones I already removed/disconnected.

Thanks!

I'll try and take a look at mine after work today. I say try because it's pretty cold out there, and I don't have a garage to work in, lol.

before you take it out does the back wwasher work cause if it does it could just be the hoses

The back washer works fine, and the front wipers work, although they sometimes have a mind of their own on intermitent settings. Anyway, I can't hear the pump when the switch is on. It may be a connection, but I can't get to it to find out.

It's cold here Toooooo.

Thanks guys.

well dude there is only one pump and it powers the front and rear so check your hoses

Thanks for the input, but this still doesn't answer my original question. I still would like to know how to get the aux batt platform out without breaking it.
