Dewinn Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 I tried to use the windscreen washers on boxing day but they failed and the motor is not making a noise. Have found out it is probably due to Fuse 14 in the engine fuse box but for the life of me I am unable to access this, how do I open the fuse box? Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
Hook Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 I tried to use the windscreen washers on boxing day but they failed and the motor is not making a noise. Have found out it is probably due to Fuse 14 in the engine fuse box but for the life of me I am unable to access this, how do I open the fuse box? Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Ok, the fuse box is between the battery and the front n/s wing. (Actually tucked partially under the wing). Remove the battery cover(s). These simply pull off upwards, front section first, then rear. This makes access easier. The fuse box cover has a small clip on the side next to the battery. Pull this towards the battery and lift the box cover away. You can then see the fuses. Not easy access, but possible with care. According to Haynes manual, fuse 14 is a 10amp red. If that doesn't do the trick, they also mention fuse 17, a 30 amp green as also being wash/wipe.Hope this helps.Mal. Quote

I have had the same problem with my wife's C2 and reasoned that as it happened during the cold spell it was a fuse or the motor burned out. Came to this page via a Google search and 30 mins later: Fuse 14; 10 amp and all is running smoothly again.Now almost 6 years old 'Little Brumm'; a 1124cc LX has had one wheel bearing replaced and now a fuse. Otherwise only routine servicing. A great little car that I also love driving. Quote
