Headlight Washer Relay Location

Post by Starion_Turbo »

Hi

Next on my list of things to look at is my headlight washer pump, the pump works fine, but the relay isn't providing power to it, the switch is also fine.

Could someone please point out which relay is responsible for its operation, I'm pretty sure it's in the drivers footwell but dont know which one.

Thanks

I'm not 100% sure, but when it clicks on and off (mine doesn't work but the relay clicks when I push the button) it sounds like its coming from in the loom just behind the dash, not that far from the switch...

Hope that helps.

I don't know. But I stole the a relay from the right side to replace my cooling fan one that failed. Fan one was the on the left and I couldn't figure out what the relay i stole was for. ( i remove my washers years ago)

Pretty sure it goes into a big bunch of wrapped wires when I had switch out.
