Getting the old girl ready for summer!!

The windscreen washers are not working, probably blocked any ideas on how to clear.

Vehicle has been off the road for 12 months - and unfortunately neglected.....now time for some TLC!!!

Kind regards
 
Is the motor working Chris? If not it might be the switch as per my response to your earlier post or the motor might be dead. You get at the pump by removing the nearside headlight and you can then pull the pump out of the reservoir (be careful not to loose the rubber spacer).

If the pump is working fine the tubing is probably blocked. Not sure the best way to unblock it but you can split the pipe just after it enters the luggage lid - the plastic circle in lips from the lid to reveal the junction and also at the nozzles. Maybe blowing back through the pipeline would clear the block?

 
Also check the one way valves at each nozzle-after a long period of none use they could have stuck
