Washer motor gone?

[nimike]

02 2l petrol D9 - sometime over the cold period, the washers have quit. Havent actually looked under the bonnet yet, or checked the fuses. pipes may have come off / fuse blew / washer motor quit.

Is it a big job? How much for the motor?

cheers

Could just be that they were fozen.My froze,& when trying to use them,i could`nt here the motor/pump working,on the front or rear washer.Yet now they are working,i can here the pump.
I think you have to remover the front drivers side wheel arch liner to expose the washer bottle & pump.

It's under your r/h front wheel arch liner, at the front. Nice place to get cold and freeze up.

Deffo check the fuse first though, if you've tried to run it when it's full of slush it could easily have blown the fuse. Happened on my mate's astra last week.
