My front windscreen washer has stopped squirting water. Instead, it squirts it onto the rear window, even though the rear washer is in the off position. Any advice on what is wrong ? Thanks in anticipation, Nick

The washer pump is blocked internally.....you might be able to clear it by blowing down the rear washer pipe and front washer pipe......but then again you might need a new pump.

strange system used on the c5, just uses one motor to work both front and rear washers. It just reverses the motor direction and the water pressure from the pump (should) moves a shuttle valve on the base of the motor sealing the system not in use. You can take the valve off the base and cleam it out if you're very careful (or tight), but it is not a permanent fix. Should last for about 3-4 bottles full (maybe more in softer water areas). If you're going to buy a new pump, may be worthwhile use demin water to increase the longevity.
