Screenwash repair

daffyduck · 11-26-2011, 06:33 PM

My front and rear screenwash is not working. I'll get a proper look at it tomorrow but was looking through the haynes manual and peugeot service box. Seems simple enough to change pump but this bit in peugeot service box has confused me. In one section, the rear washer pump, it says 6431c2 is the bottle and 643476 is the pump. Then in the windscreen washer section it says 6431c1 is the bottle and 643475 is the pump.

Not sure which pump to get, dont need bottle but its just to show the small difference. Im pretty sure there isnt a different bottle and pump for the rear screenwash.....

Im pretty sure the pump needs replaced, sometimes a little fiddle with the jets gets it going but thats not doing the trick and rear screenwash isnt working either .....

No idea what pump I need, 643475 or 643476. Suppose I should just take current one off and take it to parts shop.....

Does the pump operate at all when you activate it? Strange that everything would fail at same time. Check the pressure on the water hoses, i had mine split in few places, so water was leaking there. And maybe the pumps can be fixed rather than replaced?

Yea, going to investigate further next dry day. Bad thing about having no garage.....

Water bottle is full so will check to see if there is any leaks, kinda just presumed it was the pump because rear screen wash wasnt working.

Also, id go just in case with 643476, maybe there are 2 versions, one for both rear and front, and one only front. So take the one for which you are sure it has rear. As it must also have front. lol

could be just blocked, ive heard that gunk can build up in the tank

put a bit of vinegar in the tank with the water and let it sit for a few hours and try again

apparently the vinegar dissolves the gunk.

Beat me to it Daffy , common problem on the C4 is the No 16 fuse that blows regularly !
