I just ordered a new (used) pump. They go as low as 55 pounds on ebay used so figured its not too bad. When i drove back after the PAS was working it didnt work anymore untill half way it started working again and stayed that way till the destination.
Seems very unlikely to me that this can be caused by wiring, though its not impossible. Ill swap the pump first, if that doesnt fix it, will start digging into wiring again.
Thanks for all the help so far. Will report back when the pump is swapped
How did you get on - was it a pump failure?

What is the route and sequence of the screenwash system? Tank, then motor pump, then divider to front or back? If so where is the divider joint please?

The rear jet may be completely blocked. Pull it out and see if you can blow through it.
I've cleaned the jet, and looking in the tailgate the pipe going into the jet is not feeding washer fluid. Where is the split between the front and rear washer lines (as I know the front works)?
-
Here's one - rear washer not squirting. No leak from anywhere. Carpet in rear passenger footwell is only very slightly moist. Motor engages when I press the washer lever. Front washer works fine. Is there some way that the washer pump won't be getting any water to the rear but can still supply the front jets?

My symptoms were:
intermittent PS, sometimes heavy sometimes light as a feather.
Flickering dash and head lights
on and off slight whirring from PAS - even when not moving the steering wheel
Also (maybe less common) if I held the steering wheel at an angle away from straight the steering would subtly judder, as the PS came on and off
I ordered a PAS sensor (steering angle sensor) and got this replaced, and bingo all symptoms gone now, and PS is 100% fine
hope this helps

just had same fault on my Fabia Elegance. Two splits in cheap hard plastic pipe. It was possible to actually hear the vacuum sucking air in here. Why the garage didn't notce this noise or the 2 1" long splits is beyond me - they wanted to charge me £300 for a new tandem pump to 'fix the fault' - LANGHAM Motors Leicester. Won't be goign back to them ever again. So I bodged the splits with duct tape to test and will pick up replacement part when Parts Dept is open

Hi
can anyone recommend a good indie garage for my Fabia in Leicester area? Or in the opposite any places to avoid

Hi
which were the fuses for the audio please? I have the same problem I think. And also did you end up with the leads red to yellow etc?
Sorted it!
Turns out there was a blown fuse. Got a replacement from halfords and then switched the red and yellow cables over.
Now it remembers settings and all is good!
Thanks everyone for your help!

Hi folks
anyone any suggestions where to start with this? I have the engine warning light (electronic engine management) and traction warning light (traction control system) up on the dashboard. Fault codes have been read and are as follows:-
16785
17961
17604
17563
01314
The car has an occasional cold-start misfire where it hesitates on acceleration, but this clears within seconds of running and this only happens when cold. It has a new set of plugs in. The traction light warning doesn't come on until after about 10 minutes driving, the car appears to hesitate very briefly then this light comes on. Are the faults related? I'm not sure where to start with this.
Skoda Fabia 1.4 16V Comfort model, 2000 X reg.
thanks

If car runs fine when warm but not when cold then that would suggest the temperature sender - common problem and easy fix. Plenty of info on this forum about it if you search.
as soot1e said try the usual consumables - mine had a cold start misfire, rough running and the sparkplugs needed replacing
-
hi
can you explain exactly what you found here - I may have a similar problem!
-
thanks for this, but as I said there is only 1 hole in the door side - is this the screw that I only partly remove? Either way the door lock still won't budge
-
Hi all I've looked at the threads on Briskoda and I just can't remove my door lock. There is only one bung in the door side - with a torx screw behind it. Loosening this allows the door lock to move slightly (a mm or two) but it just won't budge. Any ideas? Must the door handle be pulled out (as if opening the door) all the time I loosen this screw? What position should the key be in in the door lock etc... help!
-
main lights warning buzzer doesn't work on my Fabia - any ideas how it could've been turned off?
-
I had this fault code. Checked the fuse in the over-battery fuse compartment - its a 40A special and that had blown. Replaced, job done!
-
hello all out there in Briskoda land! Just got a 2000 X Skoda Fabia Comfort. Bit rough round the edges will probably need a bit of advice here and there!:confused:

Marcus can I ask when you swapped the pump how did you get on with the hydraulic hoses? I see one has a metal clip, is it a single use clip? The other hose has a screw fastener - did this have an o-ring seal too or not? Just eyeing up the job to see if it's within my abilities & tools, thanks.
