Windows Washer Pump Fuse **SOLVED**

Post by markybhoy88 »

Hi All

New to this forum so hello!

I have an issue with my 2012 Polo Match 60, over the winter my screen wash went caput! I was told to change the fuse as it was quite a common issue. Only problem is there is no fuse diagram for my car that i can find, and VW wont pass on that info, instead want to charge £15 for a fuse change. I've trawled the net but i cant find any diagrams either. I was wondering if anyone on here knows which fuse i need to change for my screen wash pump?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Sure mate!

It's fuse 17 for the front and rear window, (sometimes fuse 2) and it's usually a 10A fuse

17
LHD most bottom left fuse
RHD most top right fuse

2
LHD most top left fuse, and then go 1 to the right
RHD most bottom right fuse, then go 1 to the left.

Hi iichel, thank you for the quick response. I changed fuse 2 with a new 10A and it didnt work. So i'll head to halfords and get a 7.5A and try fuse 17. Shall let you know how it goes!

Thanks again. :D

Just to confirm Fuse 17, 7.5A fuse was blown. Replaced and screen wash working fine!

Great. You saved at least £17 in solving the problem. (get to and from dealer also costs money) :)

Now you can buy Elsawin (workshop manual) for less money on eBay, for this and many other issues.
