Replying to: boiseguy (Dec 25, 2006 10:09 pm) Thanks for the info. Please confirm that when this occured, there was no activity when the washer lever was activated. I previously removed the wheel arch lining, and did not see a cracked pump. Could you be specific which pump was damaged on your vehicle. There would appear to be two on on the main water tank - I don't know if there are additional ones closer to the heated pop-up washer jets? Replies to this message: sssfegy (Jan 10, 2007 12:41 pm)

#6 of 7 The problem with the headlight washers is... by byronwalter Jan 11, 2007 (12:17 pm)
... related to the little lids on the bumpers freezing shut. When you attempt to activate the washers the system can fry itself trying to open the little pop up lids. I'm guessing that it's the pump motor that bites the dust.   Once fixed, try and make sure that the there's no ice build up on the lids and see if that prevents a reoccurrence.

Replying to: bombspot5 (Nov 13, 2006 12:55 pm) I just had the same problem and it is your washer jet motor. There are two. One for the windshield and one for the headlights. Order online or an autozone as those are the most inexpensive i found. You will need a tech manual to install.
