Hey Guys,
Been a while since I ve owned a corsa on been on here but could really do with some help.
The Washer pump on the Gf's car aint working! It aint the pump! (tried it in the old dears corsa and works) It aint the fuse (thats obvious and fine)
The wipers work when you try to wash the screen but the pump just dont do its bit. Does the wipers working mean that its not the switch. How do you check the switch? Whats wrong?
I'm crap at this kinda stuff............help please folks? Corsa c sxi if that helps.
Cheers, Matt.

If it isn't the pump it must be something before that... double check that the pump is getting/not getting power by using a multimeter on the pump's power connector. If it isn't you need to trace the wiring back and keep checking at different points/connectors. I'm not sure how the wiring is distributed for the pump but I imagen it makes an appearance behind the fuse box or in the connector in the kick panel... You'll need a Haynes manual or the like to find the wire colours.

the washer pump mightactuallyjust be sticking
mine did this when idid the conversion on my corsa just cause the washer pump hadnt been used in a few weeks
i slipped it out gave a few little knocks with a hammer and put a few volts through it to see if it would work and walla it worked perfect.
still the same pump to this day,if it ever plays up i do the same.
