Advice please- rear screen wash not working no noise from the pump, the other two pumps are working, are all the pumps the same

I believe they are identical! Microcat parts list will confirm!

Check power to pump, check stalk switchand i believe (like most things on the P38) they are switched through the BeCM!

All the same you can get one for a few quid on eBay. Bit of a bugger to change though.

Thanks for the response, will check, I've seen posts re access via the front o/s fog light or inner wheel arch removal either will probably be a pain on a 13 year old vehicle I guess, will post the result.

Clips are pretty easy to get out IF you use a proper tool. Doing it that way the wheel arch clips will be the least of his troubles.

Don't need to take out wheel arch. Either go through the fog light blanking panel, 2 srews and clips or if a light is in there just crawl under and lever the pump out trying not to get too wet, a bit awkward but there's harder jobs on P38's! You can check if its the pump or supply by cross connecting the wires. Original pumps have colour coded sockets to match up the plugs on the end of the wires but replacements as Saint says are all the same without the colours. Mine were £6ish on the Bay of E and work fine. Careful how you lever them out of the bottle, I managed to break one - and sods law, it was a working one.
