Hi guys..

I need recommendations for fixing my windshield washer system problem (99 E320). My windshield washer system doesn't shoot water out anymore but the windshield wiper still working.

:confused:

What's your expert recommendations for this matter?


Thanks

Check the nozzles for clogs. Then see if the hoses are intact. If not the first 2, it might be the pump fuse or relay. Lastly, the pump could be bad.

If neither one is spraying or even dribbling, I'd check the bottle and be sure it has fluid in it. People have been known to disconnect the level sensor.

If there is fluid in the bottle, then I'd disconnect the hose from the pump and have someone try to use the washers while you watch, but not from directly above it. If you get a good spray, then you know it's most likely clogged nozzles.

If you don't get a spray from there and you can't hear the pump motor coming on, then use a VOM, disconnect the plug and check for voltage at the connector when your helper tries to use the washer again. If you have voltage, then it's time for a new pump. If not, you need to check the fuses and wiring.

Good luck.

Problem fixed

Fixed.. There was no problem with the system.
The system was slow in taking water into the system. I pressed and held the system activator for 10 + seconds then the water came out.


Thanks for all the help from forum's members.

God bless all of you guys.
