Front washer jet motors not working

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationI've never had a washer motor fail on any of my cars before and its typical they break when there's loads of road salt spray.

I thought my washer jets had iced up but I had in fact run out of windscreen wash. Now both my front washer bottle motors aren't working and don't even make the whirring noise. I checked the fuse for the jets but that was fine and the rear windscreen jet is fully functioning.

I fear I may have destroyed them when running them dry for a few seconds. But strange both went.

Currently I can only find cheap ebay ones.

I have used the cheap ones on a car and they were fine. I run 2 in tandem so one fed each jet.
Now that shifts the mud!

It would be great to modify it to use heated water.

I see what you mean about running one per jet. I managed to fix it today swapping them over to use the rear for my front may have cleaned the terminals on the plug. I also took off the jets and tubes and cleared them out. They are working perfectly now.

So was the motor kaput then?

Hi Mickt,

No the motor is now working fine I think putting the plugs on and off must have cleaned the terminals better than I did with a wire brush.
