You saved me over 200 dealer cost thank you!
Thank you so much for that and glad it saved you some money, Hopefully helps others out as well.
After reading the comments, I waited to post my response until I actually went through the entire process. Found the replacement part (not OEM but made in CHINA) for less then $10 on AMAZON. As a prime member, received the part in 2 days. Looks identical to the KIA part without the KIA markings. Followed the directions in the video precisely. I used the original grommet without trying the one that was included in with the replacement pump. Always a slight learning curve when you first do something like this, but really didn't take me too long and results are great! KUDOS to JACK OF ALL
so glad it helped and best of all saved you around 150 compared to dealer cost for something anyone can do in a matter of minutes, worst part is dealer charges you to replace a defective part they install on vehicles. Not only that but they will put the same factory kia part on your vehicle so that you have same issues in a few years.
Can you please provide that Amazon link? I can’t seem to find it. Thanks

@@JackofAllCarbinc thank you
@@LDMTX6 Your welcome, Please let me know how it turns out.
Great video and fix was a success. My crack was on the male hose connector. I should have read Mr Dunbar's comment below about partial wheel cover removal. On the 2016 at least, you can get away with removing the 3 screw snaps at the bottom front of the wheel well cover, one center front, and then pry back the cover for access. I took two extra ones out and then tried this method. Thanks so much!
so glad it helped, thank you for comment and hopefully hitting that thumbsup on video. Best of all glad it saved you some cash.
I also just partially removed the wheel well cover and replaced it easily. My new pump came with a grommet but it didn’t sit properly so I used the old one. Zero leaks! Thanks so much!
yes not sure why the grommet on some will fit but if not a quick swap to the original one is an easy fix.
Great video! I just did mine by only partially removing the fender liner and worked through the small space. What I found was that when I put the new pump in, it was much easier to put the rubber seal in the tank and then insert the new pump into it rather than putting the seal over the nipple on the pump and pushing the whole assembly into the tank. I think that worked better for me because of the small space I had to work. All in all, a fairly easy job.
thanks for that tip ...hopefully helps others, i also think it depends on the manufacturer, i did notice that the new one fit better with the old gasket than the new one supplied but it all depends on the maker and the tolerances they use. either way hopefully that helps others if they run into issues, Job can be done just by removing a small portion of the fender cover I just had to remove mines all the way for another job i did.
Thanks for the video. You made things easy for me. It's appreciated.
so glad it helped and saved you money, thank you for comment really helps video.
Thanks for the information I wish I had seen this before I put a third gallon of fluid in the reservoir and I'm watching it drip out. Update: I got the part on Amazon I am a 65 year old woman and was able to replace this part exactly as you showed but I did find it easier to replace it when I took the tire off the car
well your smarter than me.... i refilled 4 times before telling myself i need to figure it out. LOL Luckily washer fluid was cheap.
Very helpful video. I agree... just pull back a portion of the wheel well cover. Plenty of room. And definitely put the rubber gromet in the washer tank first then push on the new pump. I did have to reuse the old gromet because it was tighter. And the small hoses plugging into the pump may crack when pulling off. But you should have enough hose left to plug in to the pump if you cut out the cracked portion.
Glad it helped, Thank you for comment and hopefully helps out others with same problem.
Thank you for posting this video.
You're welcome, hopefully saved you a trip to the dealer. Thank you for the comment really helps out
This worked great but. Thankfully I didn’t have to take the wheel well cover off. I just removed a few of the screws and peeled it back enough to reach the pump. Removing the entire wheel well cover would have been quite challenging as the screws are VERY hard to reach.
correct, as explained in video i only removed the full cover to get a better video and view for people but all that is needed is just to loosen a few clips enough to get in there, Glad it helped.
Thank you for this video! Ours had been leaking for about a year now, I finally got annoyed enough to look it up how to fix this problem and found your video. Your video helped us out so much! Thank you!
Same here, i let it go for a few months and finally could not deal with it....tracked down the issue to this and was mad of how easy a fix it was for me to have waited so long. lol. Thanks for watching and the comment, really helps out.
@@JackofAllCarbinc Does the tire need to be removed to take off the wheel well liner?
Great video! You mentioned something about putting the link to the part in the description. Can you do that?
right now im trying to get a link thru affiliate program just waiting on replies but you can get at amazon just type in windshield washer pump motor and vehicle make and model to find.
Thanks!
Welcome!
I just saw the super thanks donation ......Thank you very much for that Im so glad it saved you money.
Super easy to do...thanks so much for the video. However, mine is leaking near the grommet. I used the new one and then switched back to the old grommet. Still leaks. Any ideas? I'm not sure how make sure it is seated right..cuz it just clicks into place.
I put the grommet in first and then pushed the pump in
not sur on that but even if it looks like its leaking at grommet its usually due to the crack on pump just slowly leaking and appearing as if its the tank....I would just get a good look at tank and make sure there are no issues with it, then make sure the grommet is properly seated into pump and tank. let us know if you find the problem ...could help others out.
Awesome video. Im having trouble finding it. The kia dealership, napa, autozonr etc allbhave it for $80 but i see it online from different sources for $5-$10. Can you please ppst a link to the correct part here?
you can easily find on amazon just type in year and make of car and should pop up. Let me know if you still have issues
@JackofAllCarbinc so the ones on Amazon are the correct part for like 8-10 bucks? Same year as the one in your video basically 2016-2017 Sorento. Just wanted to make sure the cheaper Amazon one would work and kia didn't make it where only the 80 dollar official one would work like they did their oil filters
@@jokerbulldog1029 B08FBM5DNV is the exact one I purchased from amazon, You can type that number starting B08 On the search bar and the one i got will come out ...its 19.82 and it had good reviews so hats why i went with that one, Only isue i had was i had to use the old grommet in my case. I have had this on my 2016 kia sx for almost 6 months and have not had any issues yet.
@JackofAllCarbinc Good news... I just replaced it exactly how this video says.... however it won't squirter any fluid on the Windshield. I can hear it running just fine but no liquid is coming out and I refilled it with half a tank of washer fluid.
Hi, Question! How do I get the cover off? I pulled the small circle caps out but it still seems like something is holding it
those pins should be an outer circle and inner circle ,...you are removing the inner push pin correct?
Yes
@@JWells-ug3pm then those should be only thing holding the cover.....I would have to see it but usually thats it, there should be another video on you tube on how to remove the cover if necessary
I think the position of the pump motor is different on the Sedona. I believe it faces the front. I will try removing the fender guard and putting in some epoxy over the crack. I heard someone else say that the off brand replacements tend to fail. And the OEM ones are about $50. Will let you know how it turns out.
I would highly recommend against the oem. I ran into same issue with honda visors. As you can see by the demand of this video this OEM part has been failing not only on sorrentos but sedonas and others that are using this same part. The part is defective and kia will just sell you the same defective part that is cracking for top dollar, Honda had same issue with 06-10 sunvisors, I have bought 4 visors so far ...all oem and every single one has failed. Unless kia has switched manufacture (Which i doubt since they are getting a decent profit from selling this part or charging customers for replacement ) I would not spend the extra money for oem (only my two cents) i dont think the epoxy will work and if it does it would be a temp fix but thats just my opinion, i just hate fixing same issue over and over, If anyone else has issues with aftermarket pump please let us know but so far I have not had any problems with my pump.
@@JackofAllCarbinc can you share the link to the aftermarket pump which you purchased. I heard people say that their aftermarket one had issues.
@@ephy1973 SACP51715 is the part number just type into the top search bar you can see by reviews its 4.7 stars and only 20 dollars so not that big of a cost.
I replaced it from the wheel well. I couldn't do it from the undercover. I also removed the tire because I couldn't get in there well with it in place. There were lines in the way. I bought the about $10 one on Amazon. It had good reviews. I tested it and it was a little weak. It does the job as the wiper blades spread it well. I have the old one and I put the epoxy on the defect in case my wife isn't satisfied with the current replacement. The Amazon one required the lines to be REVERSED. The rubber fitting mine came with did not seem so tight so I used the original. I was forewarned in the comments so it was no big deal. Thank you for the video. It was a big help.
@@ephy1973 glad it helped and saved you some money.
whats the best way to remove the wheel well cover?
you can remove the clips carefully using a flat head screwdriver ....they also sell a trim tool specially for those clips but a flat head screwdriver works just fine, no need to remove the whole cover just enough to work in that area.
do you have the part # to replace that

Mine is leaking but it is apparently missing the entire hose connected from the pump to the front and back windshield sprayers. I a confused as to how to assemble this
Hi pretty sure that hose should bee near by if it came loose, try and trace it from the windshields down, it might have came loose but i dought it is completely missing unless car was in major accident.
you can also add fluid and see where its leaking from thats where the hose should be.
mine is actually leaking from the back side of the front wheel well, not from the container...any other ideas?
Hi you might be mistaking the a/c or even drain for a leak, when you wash a car or if water gets near windshield it usually drains from the ports at the bottom, not sure why you would have water from windshield running thru their unless your sprayer nozzles or ruber lines connecting to them are torn.
I’m having the same issue. It might be the hose that that runs along the wheel well that has a leak. I’m going to check it out and see if that’s the problem
Wheres the link for the part

what about "Just the Rear" not working? Thanks great vid
Just the rear? I was not aware the rear wiper squirts out water?
@@JackofAllCarbinc Well I am getting old, but it did. Do you have one handy? My car at the moment is gone, but the "Gauge " clearly shows On/off/spritz like. I will find pic. be back.
