Rear Washer Hose Routing
The rear washer hose is a component of the main body wire harness assembly. The rear washer hose is a hard plastic convoluted tube that is wrapped in the electrical tape along with the main body wiring harness. It starts underhood where it connects to the rear washer solvent container hose, this is rubber tubing. The rear washer hose routes into the main body wire harness underhood and passes through the front of the dash. The rear washer hose runs inside the vehicle interior along the left side rocker and over the right side at the 2nd bar beneath the front seats. It proceeds over the right side wheel housing and up the right side pillar where it connects to the washer nozzle hose, at the top of the lift gate opening.
