No washers

[wilcooper]

Hey guys.

Just want to check this before I delve in.

Owned the 182 for 2months almost and washers never have worked when pulling the stalk back - for front or back.

I can hear the motor kicking in but then nothing. Obviously topped up.

So is this probably just a blockage or anything else possible?

Cheers

Blockage, remove and get some compressed air through it

If not, remove motors and replace them. Halfords sell a "Ring" aftermarket item that fits for £16 so don't be doing something stupid like buy it from Renault as they're around £48 each

Is there a guide how to access motor? I've checked pipes around bonnet but unsure on the next step. Cheers.

If you can still hear motor working, it's actually this little ball inside the motor that's sticking. It only needs a drop of something in this section and it will start working again. I can't remember what my bf used, but he was adiment that he wasn't going was use new pumps when they were still working. Free fix if you don't mind fiddling about!

have to remove the Passenger side scuttle to get to the pump, Wipers off and once the scuttle is out the way its right in front of you..

Get a phase 2 Renault scenic pump and plumb it in. Much better design and doesn't f**k up
