Windscreen washer problem on C class
Discussion
After 1,000 miles of ownership I've only just tried the windscreen washers, and they don't work. No pump noise, no fluid coming out, but the button does trigger the wipers. Is there a single fuse that serves the pump (in which case I'll change it), or not (in which case I'll drop it into Mercedes)?
There's plenty of fluid, and the car's brand new, so the washers have never been used before.

Hi - long time lurker, havent had a posting account for a few years - but i couldnt resist responding to your post northernboy. I too have recently collected a new c63 and just last week ( also about 1000 miles ) noticed that the washers dont seem to work. Push the button, wipers wipe, but no fluid or motor noise - do i need to push it harder or something ?
Failing that a trip to mercedes may be in order.

I would have thought the pump is kaput. They're only £23 and they're dead easy to change but make sure you order a sealing grommet at the same time. Funnily enough I made the same discovery of my own car only last night. the pump is dead and someone before me has disconnected the water pipe and tied it in a knot. How annoying.
