Needing BTDT info.
In trouble shooting inoperative WWs, I've found the wires to the pump with
the connector to the washer motor unplugged. What a PITA! Must one remove
the reservoir, or might the pump be accessible otherwise? Removing the air
box apparently may be easier than removing the Euro head light assy to get
at the reservoir or pump?
Thanks, anyone.

I just went through this a few weeks ago. I had a leakage problem and
thought I needed to replace the entire reservoir with one I got off ebay. After I
removed the right headlight, loosened up the reservoir and wasted about an
hour, I had the bright idea of testing the old pump and the new pump that was
still magically attached to the ebay reservoir.
Turns out my pump was bad, and the leakage was due to a hole in the hard
line. a but of rubber hose fixed the leak, and I managed to replace the pump
lickity split. Anyway, to answer your question, the pump lifts straight out of
the reservoir. Loosen up the two bolts to the right of the jumper bolt,
move the reservoir enough to get your hand down there, and pull straight up.
