Default Headlight washers stopped working...

they just stopped. What's the problem. They used to work? Maybe the line came loose (this happens with regular washers all the time) if so, how do i get to it? the tank has fluid in it and everything

Default There not...

..controlled by any fuses. But I wonder if the relay went out. It's relay #4 under the hood!! Give the relay a flick or two, then flip your headlights on and see if you get anything.

If that doesn't work you could also try a jumper wires from terminal 19 to 21 (at relay #4). Don't get sprayed!!

Good Luck!!

Default The Pump?

I had to replace the pump on my 93 90S at about 68k miles. If the problem is not the relay, I would suggest checking the voltage at the pump, which is at the bottom of the resevoir on my car. You can use either a multimeter or a test light.
