Washer problem 406

the motor is mounted in the window washer bottle
you need to remove the bottle to access the motor because its at the bottom of the bottle

you have to check the fuse box under the wheel

Hi, First check that you have wash liquid in tank. second make sure that it will not freeze by putting alcohol in your mix of water and soap. You can buy it already mixed at most service stations. Check pump for corosion on contacts.
Good luck.

First make sure you have water in washer reservoir, with ignition on reds (not started) then get someone to operate washer while bonnet is closed otherwise the wipers (may come on) may damage your bonnet (would also be a good idea to throw some water on your screen before commencing), listen for a buzzing noise, if you can hear that noise than your washer motor is ok, if not - if fitted with fuse check it and if fuse is ok than your motor needs attention. If motor is ok than while someone is operating the washer motor look under the car to see if there is any water leaking, if there is water leaking than the hose going from your washer bottle to your washer nozzles has come off somewhere, visually check this hose, usually small diameter and clear in colour, reconnect or replace it. If there is no water leak and you have full water and motor is working, than your nozzle, usually located on the bonnet or wiper arms are blocked, this mainly happens after polishing the vehicle. There are 2 main ways of cleaning these nozzles, easiest way is to get a fine pin and poke it several times, this will clean it 85% of the time, if it does not work than you need to find the hose that connects to it and pull apart at a join, closer to the nozzle the better, and give it short burst of compressed air, have to be careful not to pop the hose out at the nozzle as some of them are located in really awkard points, hope this helps.

1- when you pull the washer lever, do you hear or feel sound of mini washer water pump working?:
- if Yes, you have a blockage in pipes.... this occurs usually because of impurities, rust, precipitations of soap and cleaners might be used!! check them starting from water resevoir ending with spraeyer under hood
- if NO, you have a problem with either:
- FUSE
- Water mini pump (this is rare!)

The washer pipe comming from the tank to the jets is probably folding over of touching something between the bonnet and the check the pipe is in place where it folds with the going up and down

Check power at the pump motors. You may not see a fuse because some run off a circuit breaker. If all else fails, a bit "backyard" but you likely could break out the washer pumps from the system and make a simple push button on the dash to operate them.

the washer motor is gone then ,,,its in the bottle,,

bad connection in wiring

can you here the pump working if yes ckeck the screen on the end of hose -- may be bad pump
