#1: Washer fluid not coming out Author: ed2k12, Posted: Tue Apr 02, 2013 6:10 pm ---- I cant get any washer fluid to come out of the bottle and onto my windscreen
I pull the washer stalk but no sound is made, I have taken it to a garage and they have said that the pump itself is fine and the fuse was blown however with a new fuse it still fails to work.
They suggested a electronic problem.
Anyone know the problem, fix or any info to help?

Could there be an earth fault or something else? I am at a loss to figure out what it is.

Get to the plug on the motor and disconnect. Voltmeter to the plug:
Code::
(Trying to use indentation for conditional testing dependent on y/n answers.)
12V? No? -> Measure positive lead against a good ground. 12V then?
Yes?->bad ground connection.
No?-> bad positive feed.
Check continuity on the ground wire to good earth to
check the ground wire as well (so there's not a double
fault).
Yes? -> Is the motor known (tested) good? If not, test it with temp wires
from the/a battery. If if it works then you might have a high resistance
connection in the wiring (ie measures good 12V with a high resistance
load like the meter, but prevents the motor from drawing the much higher
current it needs.
