Headlamp washer problem

GROMIT · 27-01-2009, 11:34 PM

Ladies and Gentelmen,

After an extended dealer visit (bodyshop) I finally come to use the headlamp washers and all I get is no sprayers pop out and a lage puddle of fluid below the left headlamp! The windscreen washers works fine and the pump runs well.
Feeling under the headlamp reveals a flexible pipe off. Where it goes (the sprayer I presume) I can't determine as its difficult to see and feel under the headlamp unit.

OK this is the question, is it easy to remove the headlamp unit? Thats the only way I can see to accessing the sprayer with fittings which of course is directly below it.

Cheers!

Defo a good idea Mark and we appreciate you taking the time to do it.

Next 'How To' should be Drifting, to be inkeeping with current threads

Now that would be a good "How To" video!

My mate has won the banger racing 5 years in a row you should see him drift a car
I remember 1 day in his cosworth flat out in 3 gear round a roundabout
Fixing his seat belt sideways then doing the transition off the roundabout on to the next then puting the car in between 2 cars sitting at the light LOL

( DONT TRY THIS ON PUBLIC ROADS REMEMBER WE LIVE IN SCOTLAND )
