I'v come across my first niggle after only having my FL2 a week

The front washers and headlamp washers are refusing to work, I have filled res. and cleaned out the jets but to no avail! The rear one works fine, so i'm lost.

any thoughts?

Thanks!

they only work once then wait till you have washed the screen 10x times or 'X' time has pasted before working again



replace 'X' with the time it says in the manual Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

the screen washers aren't working either, i've tried pressing the button numerous times to see if the headlamp washers kick but they didn't.

any sound of the pump kicking in

if not it could either be broken, waiting to work when you drive on the dealers forecourt, or loose connection wire

if you can hear it, maybe a loose water pipe, and maybe a puddle under the car

Is your rear washer working  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

It might be the alarm backup problem that quite a few of us have had, the washers,and automatic wipers give problems and the auto lights are on all the time

Probably find that it's only one motor in the system and will spin one way or the other depending on whether you're washing the windscreen or back window so can probably discount a washer motor as being faulty. More likely either the pipe to the windscreen is either trapped/kinked/blocked or come off altogether. Try it with the bonnet open to make sure the pipe isn't kinked.

Any signs of water under the car when you try to wash the windscreen  ______________________

now I am a little confused!

Just been out fiddling with the screen washers to see if I could rectify it, the hoses to the jets dont seem to be kinked/trapped and they are connected fine so no probs there. I tried it with the bonnet open but this had no affect.....and then as i was randomly pressing the washer button they started to work, and did so for about 4 or 5 pulses only to stop working again!

Phoned LandRover up and spoke to a techy who said he was going to get back to me, still waiting!

Loose wiring maybe?...

Could be a faulty washer button Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

would that be a dealer only repair?

If you want it done on warranty then yes  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

anyone know how to get the control off/apart so i can investiagte?

Ooooo let the dealer do it - These things always end up in hours spent getting get it back together again to look how it was before you fiddled and you will probably find it will need a new part anyway.

On the other hand, if you have pleanty of time...............Have a play! FL2 TD4 XS Santorini

dealer job once all visual checks

let the dealer sort it, any LR dealer will do it, just go to the most local  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis
