(T) rear windscreen washer (squirter)

the rear washer hasnt been working since ive had my cinq. today my cinq came back from being repaired so im happy, but i thought id do a few jobs on it like hammerite in the rust spots inside the boot.

anyways i had the bonnet open and tried the rear washer and the motor is working but i realised the washer water is squirting out of a pipe in the front of the bonnet through a little hole!! does anyone no what i mean? and how i can fix it?

cheers kris

im unclear what you mean.where is the 'little hole'?

if you open the bonnet then look left at where you fill the water bottle up?

then theres two pipes comming out of there one of the pipes runs to the right across the front of the bonnet where the catch thingy is that holds the bonnet closed ???

Its supposed to be attached to another pipe that goes to the back of the car. It should be attached to a small non return valve, so check out the inner wing on the offside.

Cheers

Non return valve buggered? Cost about a quid from Fiat.

hhmmmmm i will go and look now

mines went on both cinqs so its a common one.mind you about the easiest fix you will ever get

Sounds like the pipe for the rear is burst somewhere, follow the pipes from the hole in the inner wing and find the leak and replace the pipe.

or the pipe could have slipped off the little plastic t like things....check right at the front of the bonnet(above rad)the hose came off mine....i just slipped it back on and it was sorted

Mine has a little copperish pipe that came loose next to the passingers side headlight, thought it was spirting out a light lol.

Check that?
