Windshield wiper water pump replacement

[jalexquijano]

Id like to source a good wiper water pump for my 72 240z. Something that fits correctly and has gas enough power to spray the windshield. This is the one i have and is currently shot. Im also attaching a picture of the one i found on the web.

Did you test it with jumper Leeds straight from the battery?

If your pump fails the electrical test Yarb recommends and your pump is dead, replacements are available on Amazon:  https://www.amazon.com/ACI-177510-Windshield-Washer-Pump/dp/B000CEN2OK/ref=sr_1_4?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.8sIz-JyDouorpuyV73LJGApCXSnIcESJdEAuzfZjL6rENSgwS7oSiVl-b-R0qZM-bxU_wHyiykdwdDs76tM6YTm9JSfu6l8nX3Ws9itlpXw.qIJ1MJ9DZAz_O78dgBolSY0D-EDnP4-JmyLTOHvDdLo&dib_tag=se&qid=1714416653&s=automotive&sr=1-4&vehicle=1971-67-2284-20-----14492------1&vehicleName=1971+Nissan+240Z

Water pump is fine. I had removed the dome light fuse and thats it didnt work. Now its back in commission.

Always test before replacing! That's true here much less in central America where parts aren't as plentiful!

Im glad you found it! 😁

Tks Patcon. Now i need to fix the blue hi beam light and determine the exact position of the ts switch so the horns make contact precisely.

I would unplug the bulb and test for voltage at the socket. If there's good voltage its probably the bulb. If there's no voltage it's somewhere else.

How do i get into that small hole from behind? Its really stretch for someone like me that is 6 feet tall.

Pump is good. i mistakenly removed the Dome fuse from the circuit and it cease to work. Only 2 remaining matters to be solved: 

1. The high beam blue led light in the speedometer.

2. The correct position i have to place the t/s switch so it engages both horns when i press horn pad.
