Fuse # for windshield washer fluid sprayer

Golfboy · 03-10-2013, 12:29 PM

Can anyone advise what number fuse controls the windshield washer fluid sprayer. I have a leak that I can't find the source of and I would like to just pull the fuse that controls it. I looked at the fusebox but unable to determine which fuse it is. Thanks in advance for any help in this matter.

#40 controls the headlight sprayers

#40 only controls the headlight sprayers, not the windshield.

OP, I would seriously doubt pulling the fuse can eliminate your leak as the pump is already in its normal OFF position.

Kgolf31,

Does fuse #40 also control the windshield washer sprayers that are on the hood for the windshield? I don't have headlight washers on my car.

XMetal, I think my leak is with the windshield washer reservor. It keeps running low and I have been refilling it to keep the yellow warning light from coming on in the dash. I'm tired of doing that and thought that I could eliminate the windsield washers completely by removing the reservor but then the light will stay on in the dash unless I can pull the right fuse. But I don't know which fuse to pull. That is my problem. Hopefully someone knows which fuse it is and can advise me.
