Headlight washer relay issue
« on: October 19, 2010, 07:36:38 pm »
Hi chaps
had vcds hooked up to my car today ( ta rdfcpete!) and turns out my headlight washers are not working due to the relay.
Anybody know where this located please?

Hi mate, I cannot remember off the top of my head which fuse but when it blows it comes up with the relay fault.

Many thanks Darren :happy2:

Fuse 36 20 amp fuse had indeed blown.
I've never seen my headlight washers work in 2 years of ownership...now I know why!

Hope this post helps other in the future

No probs mate glad you got it sorted. I'm sure you'll be thanking me when you've just waxed it and you get all washer fluid over the bonnet. :grin:

Increase the delay before they operate :wink: - gets rid of the dreaded headlamp wash premature ejaculation syndrome! :evilgrin:
