Wipe & Wash

[Guest 72caravan]

Hi there, I've been on the forum before with the same problem, my wash & wipe option in my Berlingo multispace 1.4 2001 forte doesen't work, the last time this happened I thought it was the pump and when it was being MOT it was a power problem and the garage replaced a fuse or fuse's. I checked my board inside the car and on the top row at the right hand side I found a 5 amp fuse gone so I replaced this but it still didn't work!

I moved the fuses about in the engine board and still no success, anyone out there with any idea how to fix this I would appreciate the input.

 

Thanks in advance

Hi,

 

Could be that the pump is full of that much crud and stopped working. The additional load therefore blowing the fuses. If you can tap it whilst is supposed to be working it might give a clue, or take it out and inspect to see if it is sticking.

 

Could also be corroded connections on the pump. Check the conditions of the connectors and spray with WD40.

 

Sorry I cannot be of further help.
