IanCal Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 My rear washer on a Fiesta has stopped working. I cleaned the nozzle, nothing, disconnected the nozzle, nothing, disconnected pipe from pump, pump is pumping fluid, tried blowing through from both ends of pipe, still no flow from pipe. has anyone experienced a kink in the pipe?

Luke4efc Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Probably frozen inside. Have you been filling it with pure water? Or have been using a low concentration of anti-freeze screenwash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanCal Posted January 22, 2019 Author Share Posted January 22, 2019 The car has been in the warm sunshine and I have used a high concentration screenwash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micro Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 5 hours ago, IanCal said: The car has been in the warm sunshine and I have used a high concentration screenwash When you blow through the pipe, are you able to blow or is it blocked? If you can blow through it, is it definitely coming out of the other end? If you disconnect the nozzle, is it coming out of the pipe? If you can blow through it, but nothing comes out of the other end of the pipe, i'd be looking in any areas the pipe flexes (tailgate!) and seeing if I can find a puddle of screenwash. The scented stuff (also brightly coloured) might help you find it 😛 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanCal Posted January 23, 2019 Author Share Posted January 23, 2019 When blowing from both ends of pipe nothing comes out the other end making me think it is a kink in the pipe. No puddles are appearing when the pump is connected and running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
