Washer/wiper problem - help
« on: April 15, 2013, 02:37:39 pm »
Today my washer jets didnt work. No sound of pump... Oddly the rear wiper doesn't move either, where as fronts do.

I checked fuses and can't see any blown although I wasn't totally sure on the fuse number.

Any ideas?

I have the same issue - sometimes it squirts and wipes, sometimes just wipes.

Relay to be replaced  :happy2:
