I can't wash my front windows.. Everything works, except for the front washer. The wiper functions are fine. Rear washer function is also fine.

Who's got an idea? I've been checking out cable but cannot find anything.

 

what parts of your dash were removed? id say take everything off and put it back on again.

or have you removed the dash to try and fix the problem?

could be a clog in the lines i suppose.

 

yea..need more info... does the pump try and come on.. do the wipers come on when you try and activate the washer? checked your fuses?

 

ask somebody to pull wiper switch (to activate washer motor) and you listen if the motor will buzz.

Check if pipes are not cloged.

 

When i press the handle to wash, only the wipers will move.. so this is correct. The motor doens't pump or buzz. I think there's a bad line..but can't find it.

I think i'm going to the shop on monday..

 

Did you make sure the fill reservoir isn't empty? lmao.gif

 

there are two washer motors (front and rear) you can reconnect pipes and wires. So front washer will work and rear - will not.

 

Here's what it could be.

1 Dryrotted/cracked fluid line.
2 Bad Fluid Motor
3 Bad wiring at motor
4 Bad wiring at switch
5 Broken switch
6 Clogged Lines or nozzles

How to figure out which.

With the car ignition ON but the engine not running, activate the washer and have someone check to see if the motor (Passenger front corner of the car) is making a running noise.

If not, it's 2, 3, 4, or 5.

If it IS running and no fluid is dripping on the ground, it's 1 or 6.

To find out here, take the hoses off at the back of the nozzles and have someone push the button again. If no fluid comes out, your blockage or break is further back. If fluid comes out slowly from one side, you have a clog in the other. If fluid comes out fine, your nozzles are clogged and need cleared with a needle or thin wire.

If no fluid comes out, follow the lines back further and keep looking.

 

Good write up. Will look at it tomorrow.

 

YES smile.gif it works again. I plugged the connector in and out of the pomp, and it worked.

Thank you all.
