Hey,

Recently the windscreen washer stopped spraying the water onto the windscreen, first thought was it was out of water. Refilled it again and it still doesn't work.

Anyone know of any good ways to troubleshoot it? Or is there a bad known history with it?

Thanks

can you hear the pump running when you turn them on?

could be fuse. blocked pickup/hose or dead pump.

Can't hear anything like the pump, just the sound of the wipers.

Does the water pump have it's own separate fuse? How would I check if it's a dead pump or the fuse?

odds are it will be the motor is dead.

can always check voltage going to it with a test light on the plug.

Easiest way to access the pump is to remove front bumper and you'll have clear access to it.

here is link to single outlet (no rear washer)
