Frequently asked questions about Volkswagen windscreen washer pump replacement & repairs
Read our answers to questions about windscreen washer pump replacement costs, symptoms and more.
What does a windscreen washer pump replacement on my Volkswagen involve?
- The mechanic will inspect the windscreen washer system.
- The mechanic will carry out checks to determine the exact fault in the electrical system.
- If necessary, the mechanic will replace the faulty washer pump.
- The mechanic will advise if any other parts need to be replaced.
- The mechanic will test the windscreen's wiper / washer facility to ensure it works correctly.
- If necessary, the mechanic will make adjustments to the washer jet direction.
How do I know if my Volkswagen windshield washer pump is broken?
- When there is no washer fluid coming from the washer nozzles.
- When there is an irregular or poor supply of washer fluid coming through the washer jets.
- If you go to spray the windscreen and cannot hear the pump running to build the pressure.
How long will a windscreen washer pump replacement take on my Volkswagen?
A windscreen washer pump replacement usually takes around 1 hour, but can take less or more time. Ultimately, the time that the job will take will depend on a number of factors, like your vehicle's make and model, year, as well as other factors. Select your car at the top of this page for information on job time and cost for your vehicle through ClickMechanic.
How often should I replace my Volkswagen windscreen washer pump?
There is no set interval to replace a windscreen washer pump. When you have symptoms like no washer fluid coming from the washer nozzles, or another of the symptoms listed it is possible the washer pump may need replacing. At an inspection the mechanic will establish, step by step, what the exact fault in the electrical system is before replacing any parts.
Please note, though, when there is no washer fluid being distributed over the window it is not necessarily the washer pump that has failed. In some cases it might be that the wiper switch has failed or that the system has blown a fuse. Equally it could be a loose or corroded wire connector.
How common is a windscreen washer pump replacement on my Volkswagen?
Although it's a common item, its simplicity, if maintained, means failure happens occasionally rather than regularly.
How can I extend the lifetime of my Volkswagen windscreen washer pump?
The only thing you can do, and this is more important than you may think, is use the right screen detergent at the correct ration. This stops the pump getting clogged up with detergent if it is too undiluted and keeps it lubricated.
Never, ever, use washing up liquid in the washer system. It's not designed for using it and you will clog up the pump as well as producing a string of bubbles each time you spray the windscreen!
How much does it cost to replace windshield washer pump on Volkswagen?
Prices for a windscreen washer pump replacement range from £60 to £130 with an average cost of £90. Ultimately, the cost of a windscreen washer pump replacement depends on your car and what parts your car's manufacturer recommends using for the replacement. Find out what you could save by having your windscreen washer pump replaced by ClickMechanic by selecting your car at the top of this page!
What causes Volkswagen windshield washer to stop working?
A windshield washer can stop working due to a:
- Blocked nozzle
- Broken pump
- Faulty relay
- An electrical issue
