Thanks for video very useful. I did mine this morning. Rubber filter clogged up exactly the same. After removing my wheel I just removed the screws and plastic plugs on the front edge of the liner and had plenty of room to remove the pump. Smear of silicone grease on the rubber and pump for easier reassembly and worked a treat. 👍
I went to the mechanic this morning with this exact issue but he couldn’t fit me in until the end of the week. I drive on a busy route with a lot of trucks so, it would be dangerous to drive without screen wash. I googled the issue and came across your video. An hour later and it’s fixed and ready for road. Thanks for the guide, worked perfect. Credit to you for your community service 🫡
Thanks for the video. Just done mine today although my bottle was behind the front light and was a right bugger to get to. My pump had fell apart and was leaking. £19 for a new one and all sorted. My local garage wanted £300 to sort it so I have saved quite a bit and only got one cut on my hand. Cheers.
Really helpful, I'll check this first, but I think my motor is gone. I would also recommend refilling and checking the washers before putting the guard and wheel back on though in case there are leaks or it isn't fixed! thanks again for an informative video!
Cheers mate for this, really helpful. I have just bought a mint 2014 ST3 pre-fact lift with exactly the same problem so will give this a try. My Mrs has a 2022 Golf Style and the washer bottle has a removable filter in the neck which I always keep clean. Ford should do the same. I have always used a very fine mesh plastic sieve that I got from a pound shop when topping up the washer bottle for this exact same reason 😁👍
Good vid -- much easier than a Mk2 Focus. Often, it's crystallised washer fluid (over concentrated?) which causes the washer/filter to block -- I was advised to avoid the cheap supermarket stuff.
@@projectmoto9089 Turned out to be leak in washer bottle sealed with clear silicone let it set 24 hours filled with with screen wash no leaks refitted to car stupid place for Ford to fit screen wash
