ProParts 53-36-961 Windshield Washer Check Valve Y-Shaped 3-Way

The ProParts 53-36-961 is a Y-shaped windshield washer check valve designed to maintain consistent fluid delivery in your vehicle's windshield washer system. This 3-way valve features a unique Y-connector design that prevents washer fluid from draining back into the reservoir, ensuring immediate spray response when you activate your windshield washers.

Key Features:

• Y-shaped 3-port configuration with one inlet and two outlets
• One-way valve design prevents fluid backflow and maintains line pressure
• Durable construction resists washer fluid chemicals and temperature extremes
• Direct replacement for OEM part numbers including 5336961 and 81346961
• Eliminates delayed spray response caused by drained washer lines

This check valve is commonly installed near the washer pump or distribution point in the washer line system. By preventing fluid from draining back when the pump is not running, it keeps the lines filled and ready for instant spray delivery. The valve allows fluid to flow in one direction only, maintaining system pressure and ensuring efficient washer operation.
