Front Windscreen Washers

Recommended Posts

So none of the washers where working , I could here the pump on the rear one so took all the piping apart and it was blocked that now works.

Front ones weren't blocked but can't hear any noise from the pump , do I need new pump ? I've tried cleaning the earth and wiring but no luck . Anything I'm missing ?

It's beside battery so drive it direct from battery-if it works then it's a wiring issue-if it doesn't work it's dead

The switch can also be at fault.

If you hear the relay clicking switch is fine and pump isn't.

The contacts on the pump are often corroded and old.

I had same problem last week and it wasthe wiper stalk.

 

Run a wire from positive on battery to one of the terminals on the pump, if pump works it's either corroded wiring or the stalk.

 

If wipers work I think this rules our relay but not sure

If the rear is working OK swap them around, should confirm if it's pump or wiring.
