HEADLIGHT WASHERS WON'T OPERATE

[RICHIERICH]

Hi Guys,

Recently my headlight washers have stopped working, from the button aswell as windscreen. I thought it might be cold temp. So I checked fuse that was good so thought it might be relay? I thought i'd top my windscreen wash up as it was low, after that they worked, off windscreen wash and on demand from button. I would have a good guess that there is a level sensor in bottle, to save for windscreen when low. You may or may not of known this, regards Richard.

 

Few pics to show where fuse/relay is located for headlight washers just incase the fuse has ruptured. You will need to remove trim around battery to expose the fuse box

The main water tank is split, when the level drops down low it stops the supply to the headlights so that you dont run out on the screen

What a good idea

I thought my headlight washers were getting a bit intermittent, too

Any chance you can repost the pictures?

Thanks!

Have you emptied the water tank and turned on the windscreen wipers as though washing the screen? If you get a humming noise then the motor is not at fault and it could be something as simple as crap and crud blocking up the hosing. If its not ths then i would suggest its time to break out the test meter and find out just what is recieving power and what isn't.
