Windscreen Washer Bottle Location?

Hi All,

Does anyone know where and how to access the bottle / resevoir that holds the windscreen washer fluid ? I need to know where the tank is and how best to get at it. All I can see is the filler cap near the bulkhead.

I need to investigate the lack of water coming from the windscreen washers as mine aren't functioning properly. The pump makes a noise when I activatethe sprayers, but only a tiny bit of water comes out and then nothing. I've topped up the tank with fresh water.

I read on the Focus forum something about cleaning the filter next to the pump and then refitting the pump to the tank.

BTW the car is a 99 MkIV Fiesta.

Thanks in advance.

    Have you tried cleaning the nozzles? I keep a pin in car and clean them regularly.
