Winshield Washer Inop

tlrstyle · 31st October 2007, 11:54 AM

Need help to figure out why my windshield washer is not working. Plenty of fluid and no signs of leakage anywhere??? Please help.

What is not working? Can you hear the pump going? How are you activating it?

I dont hear the pump. I'm using the switch on the steering wheel.

Have you checked the fuses? I believe the ones for the windscreen wipers and washers are above the drivers side kick panel

Do the wipers activate?

the single wiper fuse in the drivers kick panel is good and both front and rear wipers work. Is there a fuse for the pump? Also where exactly is the pump so I can check to see if the electrical wires are connected???

Are you pushing the button in in the middle of the wiper activation stalk or just pulling the stalk towards you?

tlrstyle · 31st October 2007, 01:08 PM

I tried both and nothing is coming out either washer nozzles(front or rear).

Fair enough. Thought I'd check because I regularly pull the stalk towards me and don't get any water and then think it's broken.

If the fuses are good then you're left with the connections, the relay and then possibly the motor. When you checks the fuses did you visually inspect them or did you swap for a similar fuse and re-test?

We'll I only know of the one fuse on the drivers side kick panel. I visual checked it. It was good. Which relay should I be checking?
