Windscreen and Rear screen washer jets and wiper not working

Featured Replies

Hello,

My rear wiper and jet aren't working as well as the front windscreen washer jets aren't working. Faults codes received are 00156 which is Control Circuit Windshield Water Pump short circuit or ground and 02398 which is Control Circuit Rear Window Water Pump short circuit or ground. Have tried changing the fuses and checking that power is going through the fuses and they are fine. From previous reading people had problems with the cigarette lighter also not working but this is fine in my case. Also, there was people that said their fog lights weren't working but mine are working fine also. My headlight washer jets also operate as normal. This fault only started today but for a short period everything worked perfectly and then fault happened again and hasn't worked since. Could this be a relay or loose wire?

These are the only 2 fault codes I'm receiving. Any help would be appreciated !

The headlight washers have a seperate high pressure pump. The front and rear jets share the same pump/motor.

 

As a first step, pull the washer pump from the washer bottle and check on the bench with a 12v supply. Chances are it has failed. If not then you need to find what controls it.

Thanks! Its very strange. Its working for periods of time but then when I stop the car and come back out to start again there's nothing. Is there a relay on the line somewhere?
