Corp. Ref. No.: 838110R
SUBJECT: WINDSHIELD WASHER PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENTS

MODELS AFFECTED: 1988 REGALS

Some customer comments have been received on early production 1988 Regals concerning performance of the washer system. The following changes can be made to enhance the washer system performance:



1. The washer pump wiring connector indexing can be revised, as shown in the diagram, on Regals prior to VIN J1470583 to increase the rate of washer fluid applied to the windshield.
The procedure which must be followed for removing the Metri-pack 150 series terminals used on this connection is shown at the beginning of Section 8A in the 1988 Regal Service Manual.

2. A revised washer program module is available which allows 1-1/2 wipes of continuous washer operation. This replaces the program which provided wash on outwipes only with a dry return wipe. Vehicles before VIN J1488572 can be revised by removing the existing wiper cover assembly and replacing with cover assembly service package 22063284 for a base system and 22087513 for a pulse system.

Parts are currently available from GMSPO.
