Just followed the instruction on this video, replaced the fuse and bingo all is working as it should be. Only took 2 minutes and cost me £0.50. Thanks

Thank you so much. Bought a packet of fuses for £1 and replaced in less than 30secs. You are my hero!! This would have cost more than £20 at a garage. Once again, thank you 🙏

Just a tip, wrap up the fuse box with a bin liner because water gets in the fuse box and it's not whether it might go, it will go. And they're not cheap to replace and fit. For the price of a carrier bag/black sack it could save you a lot of money. Your welcome. Ps Thanks for the video PJ top man 😎👍🏼

Hiya, Mine kept on blowing so I am thinking there could be moisture on the motor plug. When topping up my wiper fluid some spilled over, it has before, but I am assuming some must have gone over the plug. Typically it is Aug 8th and it's raining!!! Groan. Good old Cornish weather, lol. So can't check this hypothesis at the moment. Or.. could be a dodgy motor which means the driver-side wheel needs to come off and the cover plate above it off too to access the wiper fluid motor. Not a happy bunny right before we go away!!

Check both power and earth are good to the pump, if so your new pump is faulty. If no power or bad earth look into possible stalk control broken.

@@andrewwatson3549 One of three things can cause the problem. 1.Fuse 2.washer pump packed up (under drivers wheel arch liner) 3.Stalk control gone faulty. Most likely is the washer pump either failed or the connections to it has corroded, to get to it is wheel off,arch liner out and test with a multi meter.

@PJsprojects
@PJsprojects 4 года назад
If it keeps blowing fuses then most likely it's a burnt out washer pump. The pump is on the side of the washer bottle and will need to be replaced. Failing that it's possible the switch that you press has failed but that is very rare.

From that you have narrowed the problem down to either the steering column switch being faulty or a bad earth connection at the pump end. if you get a length of wire and put it directly to the pump power from the battery it should power the pump up and so would tell you if the earth is ok or not.
