windscreen fluid/washers output

Featured Replies

When working the screen wash it doesn't seem to put out much fluid to the screen 

There seems to be plenty fluid output when the headlights get washed at the same time but not when its just the screen .

 Any one any ideas how to increase the fluid to the screen.

 

The jets are not blocked so I assume it maybe something to do with the motor/pump ?

That's because the headlights washer use a different pump. What about your rear washer? Is that also weak? If yes, you may need a new pump?

 Thanks for that. 

I didn't know about the different pump. The rear seems ok but its only one jet working on that . I'll try a different pump.

I don't have a picture of it but if you google pics of a washer reservoir, you will see it has 2 slots where pumps go in depending on if you have headlight washers or not.  The one for the regular washers (front and back) can be changed without removing the bumper by removing the fog light and the plastic trim next to it. 

 

I have done it on mine but it's not the easiest of jobs as you will be spilling fluid (unless you have something to block the flow while you swap the pumps) and the bigger your hands, the more difficult it gets to clip the hoses back in properly without breaking something. 

 

If you have the extra time on your hands, I suggest you remove the bumper though.
