350Z window washers not working ... help please

Welcome aboard firstly. :welcome:

 

Is it just the front windscreen washers that aren't working or is it front & back windscreens?

 

In either case, can you hear the motors going when you pull on the stalk?

 

Get someone else to use the front/rear windscreen washers so you can stand near the front drivers side wheel arch & listen to see if you can hear the pump working or not first imo.

 

If you can't hear the pump working for either then yes it may well be the fuse ~ there is AFAIK one fuse for both windscreen washer pumps & it is located underneath the windscreen scuttle, just behind the car battery. To get to it you will need to remove part of the plastic covering that surrounds the battery.

 

If you can't hear the pump working for the front and the rear windscreen wash works fine then more than likely the motor has had it for the front & will need replacing. Clark Motorsport on here sell them fairly cheap or Europarts (if you wanted something local).

 

If you can hear the pump/s working then the non return valve underneath the front windscreen scuttle may be blocked or have failed (common issue too). Easily replaced but best thing to do is just to remove it completely & replace with a straight through piece of pipe. More info here: http://www.350z-uk.c...-washer-tubing/

If your washer jets work but are just weak: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/100604-front-washers-very-weak/
