Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Good evening gents, Can someone please give me a heads up on how to access the 7 L water reservoir and the associated pumps on a 89 964. Window washers don't work and it won't pass a blue slip unless fixed. I need to check houses for blockages and pump for the activation. Fuses and relays seem okay Regards hughesy

POST 2Original post

under the l/h/f guard liner pick up is probably blocked with slime beware 20 year old water really stinks,so don't get it on you

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Aaa ah. Ok. Jack it up , wheel off , remove liner ?? Wish me luck.

POST 4Original post

is that experience talking Mark ? am guessing that only happens once

POST 5Original post

no unfortunately ,very difficult when it's fully loaded some had "stuff" more than 20 years old....yuk

POST 6Original post

pull the stalk and listen for the pump….. if it runs chances are the lines are blocked at the non return valves.  Try disconnecting the line from the pump and blowing compressed air through.

POST 8Original post

if the pump runs, odds on it's the valves do the intensive washers work? if so you can swap the hoses over on the valves to check
