Hi

i have a 206 and the washers dont want to work.
I cant even hear a motor trying to push the water through.

Any ideas???

thanx
 
Establish first of all whether the motor is running. Have some one listen near the unit while you active the switch. If its not running check the fuse initially / if it is running maybe the pump is airlocked (used to be a common problem with Vectra's ) or an in line filter maybe blocked. I assume their is water in the reservoir!
 
hi my friend had the same prob with her car she has a 206 aswell she brought it to the garage and they told her it was airlocked or something. is there water in the wiper wash place? cuz i know on my car the place for putting the water is really small and doesnt hold a lot of water and i was going crazy y there was no water coming out turns out id no water in it! hth

Check that the pipe is connected to both the tank and the washer.
And at any 'junctions' along the way. Sometimes water can freeze and expand, causing the rubber pipe to come away from a connecting nipple. But if you can't hear the pump motor, try celsius's suggestion first — starting with the fuse and the power connections.
