  Q: How do you remove and reinstall the rear window washer reservoir and pump motor on Mercury Lynx?

  A: On two and four door models, the process should start with the removal of the left hand quarter trim panel; on wagon models, the right hand quarter trim panel should be removed. Then remove the screws and clip that are used to fix the reservoir to the inner body panel, you should then pry out the reservoir a little and disconnect the electrical connectors related to the rear window washer reservoir and pump motor. Undo the small hose from the bottom of the reservoir ensuring that the end of the small hose fitting is covered to avoid wastage of washer fluid and then pull out the reservoir. Pump out the washer fluid in the vehicle in a drum so that if can be used again in the future. To get to the pump motor remove, using a small screwdriver, the screen and the seal that is in the reservoir receptacle. As a next step, wash the reservoir with clean water to get rid of any deposits; and check for any 'foreign bodies'. In this connection, before installing, outer surface of the seal should be lubricated by means of powdered graphite. Pour the screen and pump motor seal into the reservoir receptacle, trailing in the seal, then insert the motor positive into the receptacle and snap it in. Connect the wires and put the hose to the connection at the bottom of the reservoir. Attach the reservior to the inner body panel with a screw and a clip; do not run the pump without fluid in the reservior as it will be harmed. Lastly, pour the fluid into the reservoir, turn on the pump and ascertain if there is any leakage and the inner panel is replaced.
