Windshield Washer for Tata Ace

[rakeshkn]

One of my friend own a Tata Ace HT for his small local business at my place. he wish to add some more features on his mini truck so I got chance to DIY on an Ace too.

In the rain and splashing mud on windscreen from heavy vehicles I suggested to fit a screen wash on the truck as its not present on Tata ace. I brought the components and did DYI this Sunday and sharing the details.


Nozzle from Mahindra Maxximo


hose routed via under windscreen and floor mat


Tank fixed on Jack stand behind Driver seat and tighten with rubber belt as he brought a heavy duty jack and placed under co-passenger seat so no issues with jack.


Tank and motor from alto


calling bell switch doing duty well!


Spraying entire windshield


Its powerful too.



sorry for the low quality photos its taken by my mobile.

Nice DIY, BTW where did you get that type of nozzle, I was in search of it.

Whats the cost of it ? how did you bring the pipe out near the wiper blade..

 

[rakeshkn]

Its from Mahindra maxximo spares 79rs for the nozzle, cut a piece of rubber and routed via cabin! Tata Nano Has the same one i guess

Thanks for the info, I will try to fix in my car too. Where do we get the spare, mahindra outlet ?

Yes, Nano also has the same one.

Eyy for your car? please elaborate man :) I am in a confusion

 

[Varun560061]

Yes for my car, the rear washer which I have fixed sprays on the front windscreen and on the top. So I taught this would be better.

Great Job Buddy, I wonder why TATA does not make this feature as standard across all models.

Congrats Rakesh, this is a very good DIY. Can you post the prices of all spares you used, including the alto tank & motor etc. The spray is covering a huge area of the windshield, final outcome is really good.

Now, that's an amazing cost effective DIY mate. I really liked the use of bell switch, kind of funny but effective.
