windscreen washer pump not working

KITEKING · Sep 6, 2010

After being away on holiday and not using my Navara D22 2005 plate for two weeks, I have noticed today that when I pull the washer stalk toward me the wipers run but I cannot hear the washer motor and no water is coming through. Question, is there a washer pump fuse on the D22, or is my pump knackered? Are the pumps expensive and how easy/difficult are they to diy fit?

Thanks Carl

I assume you have checked the fuse box?

I have checked the fuse box under drivers side and under bonnet, but could not find anything that says washer.

Update - I removed the pump, tapped it on the floor, blew through it and put it back on, connected the plug and hey presto its working now. :dance: :dance: :dance:

Had the same problem for about 2 weeks. No water coming from the jets. I checked all the fuses (there is no specific one for the pump/motor), crawled under the front bumper and pulled the pump off (took 30 seconds), check all the contacts & wiring etc - all appeared fine. Still no joy.

I was just about to search the Internet for replacement when I saw this post on Google. I ran out, pulled the pump off the bottle again and tapped it on the floor a few times and....Ta da!!!

You have just saved me £36.00. Nice one!

I doubt if you would be able to strip and repair a washer pump. You can buy a new pump cheaply enough.

Mine had a cut on the line, so each time I pulled the stalk, i watered a piece of tarmac.
Only after repairing it did i discover the second cut...

Yeah I'll try tomorrow with someone who will pulling stalker so I can check around.

Brilliant. I was prepared to replace mine and just thought id check here first. Read this and went outside with a hammer. Boom! Job done, fixed in 30 seconda, haha

Sometimes if washing up liquid is mixed with proper screenwash it can gel and and form flakes that block the pipework also stopping the pump motor.
