Good evening everyone,

I noticed today that there is no water coming from the windscreen wiper.
Question: when you press the button on the switch in the car, do you hear the pump? Nothing happens for me - only the windscreen wipers come on but no water. The same at the front and rear.
The Range has 2 pumps, if I've understood correctly - it would be unusual if both failed at the same time...

Thank you!

ahhh, water is of course in the tank...

Enough water? Check the fuses and the connectors to the pumps. Owners handbook should tell you which fuse.
 
3 pumps if you have posh headlight wipers like me!
Access to the pumps is good if you take the front bumper off.
 
Here you go.

Thanks for the feedback and the photo.
i can't hear anything. i assume that the pumps won't start. i'll have a close look tomorrow. i think the probability of 3 pumps failing at once is very low. Or are they supplied with power centrally? Thanks!
