Hi everyone,
I have a 2014 A4 and the windshield washer fluid is not spraying. I do not hear the motor working, only the wipers work. The headlight windshield washer fluid sprayer seems to work fine tho. Could I get some help in figuring this out? On a side note, would anyone know if this is generally covered by warranty?
Thanks in advance

Are you out of fluid?

I'm not out of fluid. Headlights sprayer sprays plenty of fluid. It's the windshield one that's doesn't. Is there a Fuse I should check?

If you're still under original warranty, certainly this is the kind of thing you just take the dealership and say "fix it".
If it's some extended warranty or something that has a deductible (I think CPO deductible is $80?), then you might want to do the basic sanity checks (fluid level and fuse). Your manual should have a listing of all the fuses in the back of it. Appears the windshield and headlight washer pumps share the same 35A fuse. So if the headlights are getting sprayed, it's probably not the fuse.

That would be the first thing I would check.

So I checked the fuse and that was ok as SMAC770 said would be. My CPO warranty has not kicked in yet, still on the original warranty so I did request a service appointment for Thursday morning. I'm curious to try and figure it out on my own... Would you know where the actual pump might be located for me to try verifying that it gets power and nothing has come loose?

Just take it to the dealer and post what they document as the issue and resolution, if you have a warranty don't go mucking about in there!

It was the windshield washer pump. Part has been ordered, going back next week to get it replaced under warranty
