Head light power washer

[lloydie]

Some kind person had nicked (i think) the little ball bit off the end of my powerwasher for my headlight. Im off later to pick up a new one from renault (had to buy the whole thing I was told), but have no idea how to fit one, is it easy? My skills are limited:/

I think they come off of their own accord.

It's not uncommon for them to just fall apart, apparently. If your car is under warranty then you shouldnt be paying for it. I believe it's a bumper off job too. If you are in warranty then start making waves about it.

When I lost one I just purchased a new one, popped the ball out and pushed it into the existing socket. It didn't pop back out again.

Other than that it's a 2 hour bumper off job.

The frost causes water in the jet to expand and push the jet out - there £6 new. A guy was recently arrested in our area for pinching washer jets from cars. He had pinched 1500 in the past 6 months and sold them all and bought a villa in spain - so it couldnt be him

buy the complete unit, prise out the ball, then superglue the cow back in!! As said above, to put the complete unit in is a bumper off job..

You have to buy the whole part that attaches to the bumper
The ball just pushes in, and as can be proved here, can be popped out with ease & lost...hehe
