I need some help folks!

Hi. Before acquisition of my car I noted that I had no washer fluid. I checked with seller and confirmed a faulty washer pump. However, I discovered via research that gromets may be needed as well.



In addition, I’ve attached pictures of what I found. Anyone with expertise or knowledge on how I can go about this please help with what you know. Thank you.



Regards,

Jael

don't buy genuine spares for this part - hideous cost and specially engineered to leak by and seize the pump motor around 7 to 10 year mark - buy a copy that will just work faultlessly for 25 years at 20% of the cost

Depends on the weather
20.00 on ebay, but plenty of places with them for under 40.00.

The first picture is the pump and this was also my first job with my car. Was bad at the time I bought the car. It cost $85 from the dealer with grommet, which you absolutely must have as the leak is from the worn out grommet in almost all cases. Tight fit thru the grommet is the only way pump is held in place. Vibration wears out the grommet leading to leak.

The second picture I do not recognize. Pump has only one connector and it does not look like connector for head light washer pump either.
