windshield washer pump troubles
Hi,
I have an 04 1.0 and the front windshield washer pump was getting weaker and weaker on me then totally quit so I decided to replace it. So I plug the new one and it doesn't work... after switching the wiring with the rear one it runs fine: it's apparent that it isn't getting electric current. The fuses under the hood are all ok, where should I look? do switches at the steering go bad? Edit: clarification. Last edited by laurenth; 07-11-2016 at 03:43 AM. |

Did you try plugging the hose for the front sprayers to the rear pump? Make sure the lines or the nozzles aren't plugged up.
Next step would be to take a Voltage reading. Check the plug to make sure there is no corrosion in the connector. I've never heard of a switch going bad, but it is possible for a mechanical switch to fail. |

Yep, no clogging, I switched to my rear pump for now since it isn't as crucial as the front. there should be a relay somewhere to take some voltage reading but where, I don't know. |
