Wiper water pump?

Post by Caz » Mon Apr 01, 2013 9:28 pm

Hi
Can someone tell me if I need a new wiper pump motor or is it blocked?

Wipers work ok but no water comes out I've got the sound that its working but no water?

It's my 3rd Gen I'm talking about :driving:
Cheers

could be blocked hose or nozzle
try disconecting the hose at the pump and see if it squirts water when you push wash (mist)

Got mine from Rock Auto, usually pretty cheap. As John said the usual problem is the little filter at the end of the tube in the fluid reservoir gets blocked but you've tried that already
