Wiper system

You have a bad pump then or a wire is broken to your pump. There's a float on/in it.

Incorrect. There is a separate fluid level switch for 2011-2013.

DESCRIPTION


The washer fluid level switch (3) is a two-pin conductivity sensor with no moving parts mounted on the outward facing side of the washer reservoir on the back of the Front End Module (FEM) carrier, between the left front fender and the inner fender shield ahead of the left front wheel opening. Only the molded plastic switch mounting flange and the integral connector receptacle (4) are visible when the switch is installed in the reservoir.
A short nipple formation (1) extends from the inner surface of the switch mounting flange, and a barb on the nipple is pressed through a rubber grommet seal installed in the mounting hole of the reservoir. Two over-molded pins or electrodes (2) extend from the back of the nipple formation. The switch is connected to the vehicle electrical system through a dedicated take out and connector of the FEM wire harness.
The washer fluid level switch cannot be adjusted or repaired. If ineffective or damaged, the switch must be replaced.

1. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable. If equipped with an Intelligent Battery Sensor (IBS), disconnect the IBS connector first before disconnecting the negative battery cable.
2. Turn the steering wheel to move the front wheels to the full left position.
3. Raise and support the vehicle.
4. Remove the plastic push-in fasteners that secure the forward end of the left front wheelhouse splash shield to the inner fender panel and the front fascia. (Refer to 23 - Body/Exterior/SHIELD, Splash - Removal) .
5. Pull the forward end of the left front wheelhouse splash shield away from the inner fender panel and front fascia far enough to access the washer fluid level switch (2) on the outboard side of the washer reservoir (1) on the back of the Front End Module (FEM) carrier (4).
6. Disconnect the FEM wire harness connector (3) for the washer fluid level switch from the switch connector receptacle.
7. Disconnect the front washer hose from the outlet nipple of the washer pump/motor unit and allow the washer fluid to drain into a clean container for reuse.
   
   

   CAUTION:​

   Care must be taken not to damage the reservoir during washer fluid level switch removal. ​

   
   
8. Using a trim stick or another suitable wide flat-bladed tool, gently pry the barbed nipple of the washer fluid level switch out of the rubber grommet seal in the reservoir.
9. Remove the switch from the reservoir.
10. Remove the rubber grommet seal from the mounting hole in the washer reservoir and discard.

Well, that's good to know.
