Hi, I own a Boxster S 2003. And noticed the windshield pump stopped working.
My car has no headlight washer.
I thought easy enough, bought a replacement windshield washer pump in design911. After I plugged everything in and re-filled with fluid, I find out the same result! The wipers work but there is no fluid pumped
Now I am un-sure how to fix this, these are my findings:
Is there any other check I can do to check solve this issue?
Many thanks to everyone !

Now I am un-sure how to fix this, these are my findings:
- Previous pump is definitely shot (Shorted). I connected it directly to the battery and got a bit of sparks and wires got hot.
- New pump definitely works, same as the old pump I plugged in directly to the battery and could hear it working.
- I measured on the connector that goes to the pump and I don't receive 12V.
- I checked all the fuses and they are in good order. Especially row C position 16 that is for the wipers.
- I also checked the only relay that I think is related to the windshield wipers, Relay 16 above fan relays, when I remove it the wipers do not return to their resting position just stop in any position so I assume the realy is working.
Is there any other check I can do to check solve this issue?
Many thanks to everyone !
