Windshield washer VAZ 2110 - reservoir, motor and other components

VAZ 2110 washer does not work

Taking into account the pollution of Russian roads, on which, with the slightest rain, so much dirty water rises into the air from the wheels of cars that it immediately covers the windshield with mud during heavy traffic. Therefore, on all vehicles, including the VAZ- 2110, the windshield washer must be in working order, because the safety of driving on a wet road after rain will depend on it.

In the event of a malfunction of the “tens” washer, the driver will first have to check the integrity of the fuse protecting this electronic circuit. Your subsequent actions will depend on the condition of this fuse. If it is intact, check the functionality of the pump electric motor.

To do this, you will need to disconnect the two plugs from the electric motor terminals, and then, using two wires, directly connect the voltage from the battery to the electric motor contacts. In all this, the polarity of the connection must be observed. We connect the plus from the battery to the terminal to which the pink wire went, and connect the minus from the battery to the terminal to which the two black wires went.

If the pump motor does not work, it will have to be replaced with a new one. And if the pump electric motor starts working and at the same time supplies liquid to the windshield through the nozzles, then the reason will need to be found either in a malfunction under the control switch, or a break in the wires, or the disappearance of contact in the plugs connecting the wires to the electronic circuit that supplies voltage to the washer motor.

The second option is also possible: the washer motor is running, but no liquid is supplied to the windshield. This will indicate that either the injectors or the washer pump strainer are clogged. Also, liquid will not be supplied to the windshield due to a break in the hose leading from the washer pump to the nozzles.

Main problems

All existing faults with the front washer can be divided into two main types, which have their own sub-problems, so to speak. We invite you to familiarize yourself with them in the table.

Fault type

Failure options

The washer fluid reservoir is empty

The hose fell off the pump

But each of these faults deserves a more detailed consideration.

Mechanical breakdowns

It is with mechanical washer malfunctions that owners of the VAZ 2110 most often encounter. This is compared with the regularity of electrical problems.

  1. The washer fluid tank is empty. Inexperienced drivers often start blaming a faulty pump, although in practice they simply forget to check the antifreeze level in the tank. Hence the unjustified costs for the services of service stations. Don’t forget to check the fluid level, and in winter, be sure to drain the regular washer fluid and fill it with anti-freeze in its place. Ordinary water at subzero temperatures will turn into ice, and therefore will not be able to take part in cleaning the windshield. If you still forget to drain and the water freezes, warm up the car for a while so that the ice melts, then drain and fill with a suitable liquid.
  2. The hose fell off. Anti-freeze is supplied from the tank to the windshield using a pump and special hoses. If these same hoses begin to jump out of their places, the liquid will not be able to flow to the nozzles. As a result, the washer does not function. Try to secure them better. And if they are worn out, simply replace the old hoses with new ones. If the mounting is normal, water may still not flow to the nozzles. In this case, check whether the hoses are pinched.
  3. The injectors are clogged. The anti-freeze agent, supplied by a pump and passing through hoses, then exits onto the windshield using nozzles. These are the same small devices from which streams of water come. If they are dirty, disconnect the hoses from the injectors and check their condition. Often the problem lies in the jets. They are easy to clean, but in some situations they may need to be replaced.


Pump and reservoir

Electrical breakdowns

Although mechanical failures are more common, electrical problems should not be forgotten.

  1. The fuse has blown. If, when you turn on the device for cleaning the windshield, the pump does not show signs of functioning, there is a fairly high probability that the cause is a failed fuse. Check its condition. If the device really burns out, you can simply replace it with a new one.
  2. The switch does not work. If the pump stops working, but the fuse is intact, then the problem may be a faulty steering column switch. To check this, do a little system testing. But for this you will need an assistant. Turn on the ignition and ask a friend to turn on the washer. In this case, go to the pump yourself and check for voltage in it. If there is voltage but no functionality, you will have to change the motor, that is, the pump. If there is no voltage, then the culprit is a switch, relay or wiring. Check everything. Replace what is necessary.
  3. The clamps have oxidized. Be sure to check the condition of the pump terminals. It’s not uncommon for wiring to oxidize due to moisture and literally fall apart over time. If this happens to your washer, try to properly replace the damaged wiring.

Causes of windshield washer malfunction in VAZ 2110, 2111 and 2112

In fact, problems in which glass washers work

  • electrical part
  • mechanical part

As for electrics, here first of all it is worth checking such elements as:

  • The fuse that powers the windshield washer motor
  • Washer switch relay
  • The washer motor itself

If after checking it turns out that all of the listed points do not have problems, then it is worth checking the following:

  • See if there is water in the tank. If it is not available, fill the tank to the required level with non-freezing liquid or water, depending on the ambient temperature.
  • Pay attention to the integrity of the hoses, and if there is damage in some places, repair them or completely replace damaged hoses
  • Check and, if necessary, clean the holes in the jets (nozzles) of the VAZ 2110 , 2111, 2112 washers. It often happens that when using dirty water in the tank, the nozzles become clogged and then water cannot flow normally through their holes

If you do not like the quality of spraying water onto the windshield, then you can slightly modify the washer system by using so-called fan nozzles. This can be seen clearly in the video review below.

Causes of washer malfunction

If the windshield washer does not work, it will not be difficult for an experienced driver to identify the cause of such a malfunction, and even a beginner, after familiarizing himself with the main failures in the cleaning system, will be able to eliminate them on his own.

Mechanical problems

The most important reason, as mentioned above, may be the lack of washer fluid; in this case, you just need to top it up. If it is present, but does not splash in the winter, then perhaps it is simply frozen. In this case, the problem can be solved in one of two ways:

  • warming up the engine;
  • bringing the car into a warm garage.

After the liquid has thawed, the system will begin to operate as usual, but it is better to drain the water from the tank after this and replace it with an “anti-freeze” one.

If you are interested in information about how to make an antifreeze with your own hands, read the material from our specialist.

Other significant mechanical reasons why the windshield washer does not spray include the following factors.

  1. Clogged injectors . Their exit can be blocked by various debris: rust, dirt or small particles. To check the correctness of the guess, you need to stop the supply of working fluid to the nozzles; if this is the case, then the supply of “anti-freeze” will be normal. The solution to this problem lies in replacing the nozzles.
  2. Disconnecting the hose . It may simply fly off while driving on bumpy roads, and then the fluid supply will continue, but the headlight and windshield washer nozzle will remain dry. Sometimes this happens in cars in which the connecting fittings are located on the hood, then when it is closed, the hoses are squeezed. In any case, the deformed or torn tube must be replaced and returned to its place.

Electrical faults

After checking the fluid level, the cleanliness of the injectors and the hose leading to them, it may turn out that all this has nothing to do with it, then the issue is for the following reasons:

  1. Fuse blown . You will need to find the safety block and check the insert; it can be found using the attached diagram, which is usually printed on the cover or in the car’s operating instructions. After checking, if this is indeed the reason, then you need to replace the damaged part
  2. Motor failure . To establish the accuracy of your guess, you should connect a multimeter to the motor terminals and check the voltage when you turn on the washer. If the voltage indicator is normal, but the motor remains inoperative, then the problem lies with it. You can determine which motor has failed by elimination, by moving the pump terminals from the windshield to its rear counterpart.
  3. Washer switch malfunction . It is usually located on the steering wheel. If, after checking the voltage, it is missing, and replacing the motor with a new unit did not help, then it turns out that the windshield washer switch or relay is not working. Only an experienced auto electrician can accurately diagnose a breakdown.
  4. Oxidation of pump terminals . During operation, they can not only oxidize, but also completely fall off, which is why the motor stops pumping liquid. To return everything to working condition, you need to clean the oxidized terminals or replace them with new ones.

Is the windshield washer on your VAZ-2110 broken? No problem!

The windshield washer is a rather useful and necessary invention in the VAZ-2110 car. This device was created to make life easier for drivers. When there are no problems with the windshield washer on a VAZ-2110 car, we simply do not notice it and perceive it as an ordinary thing. But when there is a problem with it, we immediately remember its pricelessness and irreplaceability. It may seem to some that it is simply impossible to drive a VAZ-2110 without a windshield washer.

This is true. We quickly get used to good things. The same situation applies to the washer. After all, once upon a time this function was not available in cars, and this suited any driver. At that time it seemed to them that the car had everything they needed and there was nothing more to add.

In this material we will talk specifically about the windshield washer in VAZ- 2110 . We will look at the possible reasons for its malfunction and learn how to deal with these problems.

At its core, a windshield washer consists of two parts - mechanical and electrical. Malfunctions in this device in VAZ-2110 cars often appear in the mechanical part, but in most cases such problems are insignificant and do not require any effort to eliminate them.

One day, one fine morning, you get into your car and want to wash the windshield. You press the washer button and... Commenting obscenely on what is happening, you get out of the car, take the first rag that comes to hand and go to wipe the glass.

Mechanical reasons why the windshield washer work

  • The most common reason that drivers do not pay attention to is the lack of fluid in the washer reservoir of the VAZ-2110. We think there is no need to describe the solution to this problem. If the car owner is absolutely sure that there is liquid in the container, and the temperature outside is below 0 degrees Celsius, there is a possibility that it is simply frozen. Some people, instead of special liquid, pour ordinary water into the washer reservoir, and then are surprised that at sub-zero temperatures it turns into ice. This problem is solved by warming the engine up to operating temperature. You can simply leave the VAZ-2110 in a warm garage overnight. After some time, the frozen water in the tank will melt and windshield washer will start working To prevent the problem from recurring, you should replace the regular water in the container with the liquid provided for this.
  • Another common reason is that the hose has fallen off. Quite often, the tube through which the liquid is supplied flies off the nozzles or from the tank itself, and the entire contents simply pour out onto the ground. There have also been cases where the hose became pinched under the hood. In such cases, carefully check the fluid supply hoses along the entire length from the washer reservoir to the nozzles on the hood.
  • Clogged washer nozzles. Clogged injectors are a fairly common malfunction in the VAZ-2110. This can happen due to poor quality sprayer fluid. It happens that the injectors become clogged not only with sediment from the contents of the tank, but also with dirt from the windshield. To find out, you need to disconnect the hose from the nozzle and check the fluid supply. If water appears at the end of the tube, the injectors are clogged. They can be cleaned or replaced with new ones.

The main reasons for washer failure and repair methods

There are three main points that may prevent fluid from flowing to the windshield.

The washer may not function due to a simple lack of liquid in the tank

1 reason. Forgetfulness or negligence of the driver himself

The washer may not function due to a simple lack of liquid in the reservoir. This problem can be solved simply: buy glass liquid and pour it into the tank. In most cars it is located under the hood, where exactly it is better to check in the technical documentation for servicing the vehicle. Each car brand has its own design solutions.

“Anti-freeze” is resistant to low temperatures, but each has its own freezing threshold

In winter, the washer may not work due to freezing of the liquid in the reservoir. For the winter it is better to fill in “anti-freeze”. It is resistant to low temperatures. Fixing this problem is also easy. It is enough to drive the car into a warm room for several hours or warm up the engine to operating temperature. The heat from the motor will melt the water. It is best to pump it out of the tank and fill it with winter washer.

Reason 2. Mechanical damage in the glass cleaning system

The main factors may be:

  • disconnection or rupture of the tube through which liquid flows to the sprayers;
  • the hose on the way from the tank to the injectors is pinched by other body parts;
  • the reservoir is leaking; there may be a crack in it and washer fluid leaks through it;
  • clogged nozzles.

Replacing injectors can eliminate technical problems

Mechanical problems can be resolved by replacing the hoses, reservoir or injectors on the hood. You can try to clean the latter with a thin needle. This type of repair of the windshield cleaning system is within the power of every car enthusiast.

Reason 3. Electrical fault

Such problems can be called the most complex, but some can also be fixed with your own hands, without going to a car service station.

We recommend: When should you change spark plugs - how to determine the timing?

Electrical failures can be as follows:

  • system fuse has blown;
  • poor contact on the connector of the pump that pumps liquid;
  • failure of the electric motor in the pump.

Checking for faults in electrical circuits should begin with the fuse. According to the car's owner's manual, you need to find where the fuse box is located. On the back of the block there is a diagram of their location. Using it we find the required fuse, check it and, if necessary, replace it.

If everything is fine with the fuse and the washer does not work, go ahead and check the voltage at the electric pump connector. We disconnect the chip and use a voltmeter to check the presence of 12 volts when the washer button is on. The absence of voltage indicates that you need to look for a break in the wiring from the power button to the connector.

If after checking the wiring and contacts the washer does not work, then most likely the problem is in the motor itself. It should be replaced. The fluid supply pump fails rarely, but if it happens on the road, it will be difficult to carry out such repairs. In this situation, it is better to contact the nearest auto repair shop.

Windshield washer device

The windshield washer consists of a polyethylene reservoir with an electric pump installed on the left in the engine compartment, washer nozzles located on the hood, and flexible connecting hoses.

The washer is activated by the right steering column switch, and power is supplied to the pump motor and windshield wiper relay, which turns the wiper on at low speed if it has been turned off or was running intermittently.

If the pump malfunctions, it is replaced. Clogged nozzles can be blown in the opposite direction or cleaned with fishing line.

Let's summarize

So, if the windshield washer does not work, then the troubleshooting sequence is as follows:

  1. Check for fluid in the reservoir. If it is missing, fill it in.
  2. Inspect the fluid reservoir, hoses, connections to the reservoir and nozzles for mechanical defects.
  3. Check the electrical circuits: fuse, wiring, contacts on the connector, pump.

Before troubleshooting, check for fluid in the reservoir

Not everyone may want to do their own windshield washer repair, but the knowledge gained from this article will be useful.

Removing and disassembling the windshield wiper

We optimize injectors

If the engine starts running , the fluid is pumped up and the nozzles spray it efficiently onto the windshield, then the work can be considered completed successfully. If the system works, but the nozzles do not cope with their task, then they need to be replaced.

But there are options here. You can install a standard version of the nozzle or optimize the system a little - install double or fan jets. If desired, you can install injectors from a foreign car. The main thing here is that they fit neatly into the connector.

To increase the coverage area of ​​the washer, you can install an additional nozzle, move the nozzles to the hood, or mount fan nozzles instead of standard nozzles (we have already talked about this).

In addition, to improve the performance of the washer, the factory pipes are often replaced with better ones (in this case, the problem of freezing the liquid in winter is solved). In particular, special aquarium tubes can be used for such work.

Monitor the windshield washer system and troubleshoot problems in a timely manner (change and clean nozzles, replace the pump and tubes, restore wiring). Otherwise, bad weather can turn your trip into hard labor.

System diagnostics

To understand the reasons for the inoperability of the windshield washer on the VAZ 2107, you should first of all consider the design of the system. It consists of the following elements:

  1. Washer fluid reservoir.
  2. A pump with an electric motor, which operates from a 12V network.
  3. Nozzles or sprayers of a water jet that hits the windshield.
  4. PVC pipes connecting the above elements.

A special liquid is poured into the washer reservoir, one type in summer and another in winter. Winter liquid is called “anti-freeze”, with its help you can effectively wash windows at sub-zero air temperatures, and not worry about the fact that it may freeze in the system.

When the washer is turned on, liquid is sprayed onto the windshield with the simultaneous automatic activation of the wipers. If, when you turn on the device, there are no signs of its performance, then you can determine the cause of the breakdown yourself. The electrical diagram for connecting the washer on a VAZ 2107 is presented below, based on which you can sort out the malfunctions.

Connection diagram

Why does the windshield washer not work?

To determine why the windshield washer on the seven stopped working, it is necessary to carry out a thorough diagnosis. To help you carry out self-diagnosis, use the diagram shown in the photo above. Once a faulty element is detected, it will need to be repaired or replaced, depending on the nature of the failure. Malfunctions of the element in question can be divided into minor (you can fix it yourself) and serious, requiring replacement of the faulty part. Let's take a closer look at the main components of the system and their malfunctions.

The motor has failed

The first step is to check the proper operation of the washer motor. This is quite simple to do, just open the hood and press the steering column switch. The absence of signs of operation of the washer pump indicates that this element or its power circuit is faulty.

It’s not at all difficult to figure out the problem, but you will need a multimeter or a light bulb to do this. We connect the device to the contacts on the motor, and by turning on the steering column switch, we take measurements. The presence of 12V power (or if the light comes on) indicates that the circuit is working, and the reason lies in the inoperability of the motor itself. This part is not repairable, so you will need to buy a new element and replace it.

Injectors

The nozzles should be checked if the windshield washer motor is working properly and there is liquid in the reservoir, but it is not supplied to the windshield. The nozzles spray liquid and have a simple design. In this case, the lack of liquid supply to the glass can occur due to a malfunction of the nozzles, which is quite easy to identify:

  1. Check the connection of the tube from the motor to the injector. This tube may have come off, and therefore the liquid does not flow to the nozzle.
  2. Check the tube for kinks and kinks. If a bend is appropriate, the motor will not be able to straighten it, since it has rather low power. If the reason is a bend in the tube, then you cannot turn on the motor for a long time, as it may burn out under load.
  3. Clogged injectors. It is quite easy to determine such a defect, since if the injector holes become clogged, not all of them are clogged at the same time, so one of the two parts will function in case of such a malfunction.

If the nozzle hole is clogged, you can clean it with a thin sewing needle, thereby restoring the functionality of the system.

Fuse

If the multimeter shows zero voltage when you turn on the steering column switch, then the fault must be looked for in the power circuit. The first thing you need to do is check the fuse. It is responsible for the flow of permissible current in the circuit, the value of which should not exceed 8A. When the load increases or when the circuit short circuits, the fuse link burns out.

You will need to check the serviceability of fuse F2, which is responsible not only for the serviceability of the washer circuit, but also for the windshield wiper and headlight circuits. If the fuse has blown, it should be replaced, but before doing this, check the continuity of the circuit, since the reason for its blown may be a short circuit.

Understeering's shifter

One of the key elements of the system is the steering column switch, which supplies power to the washer pump drive. A switch is a contact that closes when you move it. It is possible to talk about a malfunction of this part only when all elements of the system have been checked and are in good working order.

Checking this part is quite simple; for this you will need a multimeter in test mode. You need to disconnect the terminal from the switch, and then connect the probes of the device. In the closed position of the switch, the device should emit a characteristic signal. If there is no signal, then the part must be replaced with a new one.

We recommend: Polishing the windshield with your own hands: maintaining visibility for a long time

Identifying a mechanism malfunction is quite simple if you approach the problem correctly. To do this, follow the instructions described above, which will ultimately allow you to independently find and eliminate the cause of the washer inoperability on the VAZ 2107.

Windshield washer VAZ 2110 - reservoir, motor and other components

Today, a car is unthinkable without a windshield washer; we are too accustomed to the fact that, at our first request, washer fluid splashes from the nozzles, and after it, the wipers wash away road dust and the pitiful remains of insects hitting the windshield. But what to do if suddenly the VAZ 2110 refuses to perform its functions? If the pump does not work, then you have to forget about the cleanliness of the glass, or wash it the old fashioned way, by hand with water and a rag.

1 – rear armature shaft bushing; 2 – felt ring; 3 – electric motor housing; 4 – permanent magnet; 5 – anchor; 6 – collector; 7 – traverse with brush holders, chokes and thermobimetallic fuses; 8 – front armature shaft bushing; 9 – panel with noise suppression capacitors and limit switch contacts; 10 – block of intermediate gears; 11 – cover; 12 – gear housing; 13 – driven gear; 14 – output shaft of the gearmotor; 15 – block of intermediate gears

Cause of failure due to electrical

Electrical causes may be:

  • The fuse may have blown. It is located in the fuse box;
  • Check the leads that are equipped with the VAZ 2110 washer motor; it is quite possible that they have oxidized. It happens that the terminals completely fall off;
  • The windshield washer switch located on the steering wheel does not work. Its performance can be easily checked with a multimeter;
  • Wiring faulty. The wires may need to be replaced;
  • The windshield washer relay does not work. The best treatment is also replacement.

Mechanical reasons for device failure

Conventionally, the reasons why the windshield washer fails can be divided into mechanical and electrical. But most often they are quite simple, sometimes you can even recognize them by sound, or carry out a simple check.

Let's look at the mechanical reasons first:

  • It is likely that the mesh of the cup, which is equipped with the washer reservoir of the VAZ 2110 , is clogged with dirt or other deposits, which is why the pump cannot pump the liquid. Here, most likely, you will have to remove the tank, and then see whether the glass with the mesh needs a replacement, or a simple rinsing;
  • Instead of a special anti-freeze fluid, in the summer they poured ordinary water, and before the onset of cold weather, even after pouring a normal windshield washer, they forgot to remove the water from the hoses. She froze, and accordingly, washing the windshield became impossible. The solution is to warm up the car, leave it in a warm garage with the hood closed and wait until the water melts, then the pump can drive it out;
  • In the above situation or under other heavy loads, the windshield washer motor shaft may turn. At the same time, a hum is heard from the motor, but the pump does not supply anything to the windows. If this happens, then only replacing the mechanism will help;
  • The hose has just slipped off, and the liquid does not flow through the nozzles, but somewhere past them;
  • The hose going to the injectors is pinched;
  • The injectors (fittings) are clogged with deposits or dirt. To check this, simply remove the hose from the nozzle and see if liquid flows. Replacing the injectors will help.

Electrical reasons why the windshield washer may not work

If you do not find the above problems, then most likely there is a breakdown in the electrical part.

First of all, you need to make sure that the fuse is intact. If it burns out, it needs to be replaced.

It is also worth looking at the condition of the terminals of the motor, which is located in the windshield washer reservoir. If oxidation or rust appears on the metal, it must be cleaned with fine-grit sandpaper.

Today, a car is unthinkable without a windshield washer; we are too accustomed to the fact that, at our first request, washer fluid splashes from the nozzles, and after it, the wipers wash away road dust and the pitiful remains of insects hitting the windshield. But what to do if suddenly the VAZ 2110 washer motor refuses to perform its functions? If the pump does not work, then you have to forget about the cleanliness of the glass, or wash it the old fashioned way, by hand with water and a rag.

Why the VAZ 2110 washer does not work

This is true, you get used to everything good quickly, the same with the washer, once there was no glass washer or headlight washer, and everyone was happy with everything and it seemed that the car had everything that was needed. Today I propose to talk about the windshield washer and its malfunctions. You will learn why washer does not work, the reasons for its malfunction and where to look for them.

Windshield washer malfunctions can be divided into two categories - electrical and mechanical. Mechanical ones are more common, but they are usually not very difficult, so they are easier to fix than electrical ones.

So, one fine day you sit behind the wheel, decide to wash the glass, press the button and. nothing happens, liquid does not flow, the glass does not wash. What's the matter? This is the first question that comes to mind after a series of obscene expressions :-))).

The VAZ 2112 washer does not work. Reason.

Mechanical reasons why windshield washer may not work

  • The most common reason that drivers do not pay attention to is the lack of fluid in the washer reservoir of the VAZ-2110. We think there is no need to describe the solution to this problem. If the car owner is absolutely sure that there is liquid in the container, and the temperature outside is below 0 degrees Celsius, there is a possibility that it is simply frozen. Some people, instead of special liquid, pour ordinary water into the washer reservoir, and then are surprised that at sub-zero temperatures it turns into ice. This problem is solved by warming the engine up to operating temperature. You can simply leave the VAZ-2110 in a warm garage overnight. After some time, the frozen water in the tank will melt and the windshield washer working To prevent the problem from recurring, you should replace the regular water in the container with the liquid provided for this.
  • Another common reason is that the hose has fallen off. Quite often, the tube through which the liquid is supplied flies off the nozzles or from the tank itself, and the entire contents simply pour out onto the ground. There have also been cases where the hose became pinched under the hood. In such cases, carefully check the fluid supply hoses along the entire length from the washer reservoir to the nozzles on the hood.
  • Clogged washer nozzles. Clogged injectors are a fairly common malfunction in the VAZ-2110. This can happen due to poor quality sprayer fluid. It happens that the injectors become clogged not only with sediment from the contents of the tank, but also with dirt from the windshield. To find out, you need to disconnect the hose from the nozzle and check the fluid supply. If water appears at the end of the tube, the injectors are clogged. They can be cleaned or replaced with new ones.

Reanimating the washer system

How to replace the motor?

Unfortunately, this part is quite difficult to repair. And often replacing a windshield washer pump is even cheaper than fixing an old one. Therefore, it is better to immediately order a new part and not have to worry about repairs.

Replacing the washer pump:

Replacing the device is easy:

  • Before you begin replacing, remove all remaining fluid from the reservoir.
  • Locate the contact connecting the pump to the battery. Carefully disconnect the power.
  • The next point is optional. You can disconnect the tank by unscrewing the bolts that secure it. However, if manual dexterity allows you to manipulate the fixed tank, you can do without dismantling it.
  • Remove the electric pump from the tank and unscrew the tubes.

Attention! Remember where and which hose was screwed on. In the future, they will have to be placed clearly in their places.

  • So, now we take out a new pump and connect it to the system.
  • Screw the tubes back into place.
  • If the tank has been dismantled, put it in place and tighten the bolts.
  • We connect the contact from the battery so that the motor has something to power from.
  • Fill the water back.

Then press the washer lever. If there is a buzzing sound, it means the motor is running.

How to clean injectors?

For washing, prepare a special caustic solution. To do this, take purified water without chlorine and add vinegar. The ingredients must be mixed in a one to one ratio. Stir the resulting liquid well.

Pour the solution into the tank. Press the washer lever. It's okay if no water gets on the glass. The main thing is that the liquid reaches the blockage. Leave the system in this state for two hours. After that, try pressing the lever again. If water appears, drain the caustic solution and rinse the tubes with distilled water.

If water does not flow, but you are sure that the cause of the problem lies in a blockage, press the lever again and leave the acidic liquid for another two hours, then check again.

Remove injectors

It would also be useful to talk about how to remove the windshield washers. This information will be useful to those who decide to clean the injectors separately or replace them altogether.

The injectors are removed with the hood open:

  • See if the parts have plastic plugs. If so, they should be removed. Just be careful when handling the latches, as they may be made of cheap plastic.
  • Take a flathead screwdriver and use it to unlock the spring fasteners. After this, the nozzle can be removed.
  • The devices are installed using the same steps, but in reverse order.

Many people do not think about the importance of the washer system until they encounter problems with it. After all, hardly anyone would like to drive with dirty glass and have virtually no visibility.

To avoid such troubles, use high-quality non-chlorinated liquids to wash windows.

And if something does break, don’t be upset. Restoring the system is not a troublesome task and not even particularly expensive.

The main thing is not to close your eyes to such problems.

The windshield and rear window of the car must be kept clean; any contamination reduces visibility of the road and what is happening around, which can lead to an emergency. The windshield washer is designed specifically to keep it clean; the importance of such a device can be put on a par with the engine or chassis, therefore, as soon as deviations in its operation appear, the cause of the breakdown should be immediately determined and eliminated.

Removing the tank

To remove the windshield washer reservoir, you need to do the following:

  • Disconnect the negative terminal from the battery;
  • Disconnect the block from the liquid level sensor;
  • Disconnect the pads from the windshield washer pump electric motor. When reassembling, remember that a block with a pink wire is connected to the positive terminal, and a block with black wires is connected to the negative terminal;
  • If the tank is full, you need to unscrew its cap and remove the cup with the filter mesh;
  • Unscrew the fastening nut and bolt. Do not lose sight of the fact that there is a washer installed under the head of the bolt securing the windshield washer reservoir;
  • Remove the tank from the studs by lifting it up;
  • If there is liquid in it, cover the hole and disconnect the hose from the fitting;
  • This liquid is reusable, so it is advisable to drain it into a clean container.

Checking the motor

If there is liquid in the windshield washer, but it does not come from the nozzles, you need to check whether the pump electric motor is working. If it is in good condition, check the fuse, as well as the wiring. To do this, after de-energizing the battery and disconnecting the pads from the pump motor (as described above), you need to connect the pump motor terminals directly to the battery terminals, observing the polarity. If the pump still does not work, it needs to be replaced, which is usually done together with the motor.

To make the replacement, you also need to first remove the windshield washer reservoir, and carefully pry off the pump with a screwdriver, and then remove it. It is easy to install a new pump, but before doing so it is highly advisable to replace its rubber seal.

Pump repair or replacement?

The feasibility of repair is determined by the cost of a new pump. A large number of pumps are non-separable, so for repairs you will have to cut them and then glue the plastic case together. To repair it yourself, it is enough to completely disassemble the motor, clean its insides from dirt, corrosion and growths.

Of course, you won’t find spare parts for the washer pump, so the sealing lip will remain old. If it was this that caused the jamming, then within a year the windshield washer will most likely not work again.
