screen washer...
« on: 19 May 2012, 18:50 »
Hi again, well after a search i cant find any info, so thought id ask, when i pull the stalk back on the washers the front and rear wipers start working, but no screen wash comes out, if i disconnect the plug on the motor itself and use a power prob on the motor i can power it up so it can squirt the water and reverse it to do the rear screen, however if i plug it back in and power it up, only the wipers work again, just wondering if i have the correct stalk or could be some dodgy wiring at all??

Thanks once again in advance my fellow dubbers lol

A wiper stalk like this...

Not sure if I have a picture of the MFA one you need...

It's a Big Boss one from a CE1 car - only lasted for 2 years so you have to be very careful you get the correct one...
