UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

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.

17 from May 2011

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.

For future reference, maybe this is useful

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

Thank you iichel. You are some man!

P.S thank you for the fuse list..! Greatly appreciated.

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.

Washer pump fuse solved for me too - thank you!
It is a 7.5amp fuse in the top right position (right hand drive car) in the fuse box under the steering column

Thanks for reporting.
