Hi,

I just purchased a 1992 Nissan Sentra as a first car for my daughter. It's in pretty good shape overall, but it has a few minor things that need to be fixed. One of those things is the washer pump. It doesn't work at all.

In trying to figure out if the problem is the pump, or something else, I wanted to check to see if there was voltage present at the connector that plugs into the pump. I would have expected to see only 2 wires going to the pump (hot and GND), but there are actually 4 wires, so I'm a bit confused.

Can anyone shed any light on this? What are the 4 wires for? I'd like to be able to confirm that it's a bad pump before I go buy one. Any troubleshooting ideas?

Thanks,
Scott

NO...it should be mounted in the washer fluid reservoir...check there......

No hot wire to cigerette lighter. Hey guys... Still finding all sorts of little glitches in this thing...It's 1995 Nissan SE pickup. V6 automatic. I noticed I had no workable lighter... I took the cover off and tested the wireing to that point...no juice..I then went to the fuse box and checked the fuse...It was good but I tested to see if I was getting juice to the point where the fuse plugged into the fuse box...Didn't have any there either..I did pull a few other fuses to see if they were hot and they were..Any ideas?...Thanks..

OK, thanks for the get-back but here's another stupid question... What are the Maxi-fuses?...I see 4 big blue ones on the same side of the battery.(one is for fuel pump) and theres 3 big blue ones on the other side located between the washer fluid reservoir and the air filter.

Hey Carjunky
This is my first post and Im not that car savvy so please bear with me.
I have a 1997 Lincoln town car
V8 not sure how many liter
107000 miles

OK well this noise happens while im driving, at different times. It seems to be starting when I slow down/stop and accelerate. I thought it was the breaks but it keeps going on even when the car is in park. It happens near the left rear wheel well. The sound is a low noise, kind of a metal stressing sound but I'm not entirely sure. From outside the car it almost has an air escaping sound but it is very faint. It might be cold related as well. I am completely clueless on this, does anyone want to throw out ideas of what it might be or how serious it is. Thank you.

Welcome and let the guessing begin

It's a 4.6 engine and that's not the point with this. If a noise is heard sitting still it near can't be brakes the way you described it.

This car has "air springs" instead of coil springs in the back and lines that go to each. The pump is under (I think) the washer fluid reservoir and now and then you would hear it pump as it levels the car also. If the pump underhood just carries on too long and hissing is heard it very well could be a leak in the system or in need of the airbag springs - suspension not interior air bags.

Your subject line says "real loud" so perhaps I'm off on wrong tangent. Hissing could also be exhaust noise. I think if a single exhaust the tailpipe goes to passenger's side but even so, noises can carry from source.

Can it make this noise with key on, engine off? If not that kind of rules out an exhaust noise but I'm near certain the air lifting springs are enabled.

Don't ignore leaks to those as unless that model year changed something the air is the only thing holding the rear of car up. If those blow out for any reason they sit so low you can't roll a golf ball under the car and will scrape on smallest surface grade changes. Not one of Ford's better ideas but they did that a lot in that vintage. If that's still suspect look for cracking on those air spring/bag things and you might find that soapy water could surface a leak when sprayed on one it would foam up or make bubbles and shouldn't,
