My front washer jets arent working. The pump sounds like it is working, and I cant see any leaks in the pipes. The water just dribbles out of the end though.

Any ideas?

Thanks

i had this problem on mine, when i had it, sounds like they`re jammed up, you`ll have to remove em off the bonnet, place them in boilin hot water for a minutes and then you`ll need to clear them with air from where the pipe usually plugs into to blow the crap out of them, best way really AND it works, no use with usin a pin as all you`ll be doin is movin the carp around in there and not to mention ruin the jets, if you have trouble mate i`ll help ya, i`m free over the weekend doin some bits to the mondeo

Buy a new non return valve, thats whats gone. Costs a few pound at Fiat, any will do, doesn't need be off a Bravo or you can get one from Halfords. Look near the window wipers.

Its located within the bonnet, trace the washer tubing back from the washer jets. Not too hard to find. Its a 'Y' connector. It splits the water aswell as working as a non return valve.

Ah ok, cheers. I'll get a new one from halfords in the morning and see if it helps.
