  1. I just ran a cable to one of the USB-C ports. I had to add a 'data blocker' to stop the car/dashcam thinking that a USB drive had been attached. To fit the cable around the back of the glove box to the camera took about 5 minutes.

  4. I finally got around to fixing my screen washers today. Am posting what I learnt in the process. 1) The screen washer pump on the Kodiaq (unlike other Skoda models) do not have a fuse. So don't waste any time (like I did) looking for one. Apparently when the pump fails the electrical system simply disables the pump. It does not generate a fault code which is a bit annoying. 2) For me the front and rear washers and the headlight washers had stopped working. I found it odd that both the screen and headlight washers had both stopped working at the same time, as the headlight washer uses a separate pump to the front/rear screens, so odd that both pumps would have stopped working at the same time. It turns out that this is just a quirk of the Kodiaq, if one pump stops working, for some reason the car also prevents the other pump from functioning. 3) The front and rear washers share the same pump. The headlight washer pump is separate. 4) After looking through various other forums, my fix was simply to replace the 'front and rear' washer pump, which I did today. Luckily for me this was the issue and everything it back up and working again, including the headlight washers. The replacement pump I found on Amazon for £13. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B006DHY3UC?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1. I probably could have got it cheaper from elsewhere, but ordered from Amazon for ease. Not an original part but it works fine. 5) Replacing the pump is a bit of a pain due to it's location, but perfectly easy to do if you know one end of a screwdriver from another. It involves removing the front left wheel and removing the wheel liner to get to the pump. Probably took me a couple of hours, at a leisurely pace, to do it in total. Page 64 of the Skoda Kodiaq Electrical System Workshop guide and page 232 of the General Body Repairs workshop guide (both can easily be found online for free download) explains all of the steps. I put an axel stand under the front suspension arm of the car whilst I was working on it as I daren't trust my life to just a scissor jack holding the car up. 6) Windscreen wipers and washers will only function when the bonnet is closed (pretty obvious!). 7) Headlight washers will only function with headlights on and the car is in motion. Headlight washer will function once, on first pull of the washer stalk, and then again on every 10th pull of the stalk. Thats all!
  5. Hi All. The screen wash pump on my 2018 Kodiaq has stopped working. It's making no sound whatsoever. I thought I'd check the fuse as a first step but, having checked various online forums, there doesn't appear to be a fuse for the washer pump. Has anyone else had this issue? Did you find if any of the fuses is for the washer pump? Maybe it's shared with the wipers (which still work) so this would indicate the pump has broken. Any help greatly appriciated.
