Windshield washer problem

Featured Replies

Hi!

 

Having strange behaviour on my Octavia 2014 estate.

 

The washer stops working on a longer trip after approx 15min from start.

 

When the windshield washer stops working, then also the rear wiper and washer stops functioning.

 

When you stop the car and engine, then it starts to work again! But stops again after 15secs. 

 

Anyone having the same symptoms?

 

 

I had some odd electrical gremlins when it got down to -15C the other day here in Scotland on my Scout.  Exactly the same, Windscreen washers just stopped working.  I found my windscreen fluid was only ever good down to -10C.

 

What is the dilution of your screen wash (because I imagine you want to make sure it is still fluid down to about -25C)?  Suspect that maybe the windscreen washer is overloading due to blocked jet?  Does this happen only when it is cold? What electronics did you have switched on at the time?
