No, he had a mysterious snap ring appear in his driveway resulting in a where-did-it-come-from scenario.I missed it.. you had the same issue..?
Lol. Nice.No, he had a mysterious snap ring appear in his driveway resulting in a where-did-it-come-from scenario.
Did you install it yourself and how much was it?Installed Remote Start. At 227k the Hoe hadn’t been my daily driver for a few years, but found myself driving it more and more to work lately. Tired of getting in cold car or walking out to warm it up.

I did mine not too long ago but forget which is which. My rear wiper is deleted so I didn’t need that one hooked up, the hose just goes above the tank so it doesn’t leak, and there’s no rear switch so it can’t be activated. But when I put a new front line in I hooked them to the wrong pumps so when I hit the front fluid it just shot out the rear hose all over the place. My 50/50 didn’t work good even though I was so sure I had it right that I buttoned everything back up including the battery tray and battery. I suggest using a set of jumper cables to connect to the battery while it’s out so you can check the pumps. And that o ring trick looks like it will hold fine imo.Current situation:i bought the replacement pump, since that seems to be the weak link. But as soon as I opened it up, I see the lines are trash. Now I don’t know what goes where. Lol. Any tips appreciated. I guess I’ve got a 50/50 shot.
Ok. Got the right lines attached. Yay. On a pissed the **** off note, the pump I ordered from a GM dealer was the wrong damn one. So didn’t end up replacing it after all. Sonsofbitches! i also managed to break the plastic clip that holds the washer fluid level sensor on, so for now a hack job o-ring was the best I could do. It’s pretty tight in there anyway, but don’t feel like going to get a replacement, and wiring in a new one today. It should hold for a while at least. replaced the rubber connecting tubes as well and clamped them just because. annd.. since watching @Fosscore, I had to touch up the terrible looking battery tray with some fresh black gloss. Lol. It still looks like crap, but significantly better than it was. [emoji23]
Yeah, I put the battery back in to test, and surprisingly I got it right. Lol. Now I’m just waiting for the paint on the battery tray to dry so I can put the rest back together. I also failed to notice there are 3 shorter 10mm bolts, and 4 longer ones in the tray. Silly me, assuming that all 7 were the same length! [emoji23][emoji1787]ok. Think I have them figured out. The 3 shorter bolts should go in the marked holes:I did mine not too long ago but forget which is which.
