1. Faulty Washer Pump: The washer pump is responsible for creating the necessary pressure to spray water onto the windscreen. If the pump is faulty, it may not be able to generate enough pressure, resulting in low water flow. Check the pump for any signs of damage or wear, and replace it if necessary.
2. Clogged Filter: There may be a small filter installed in the washer fluid reservoir or within the washer pump assembly. Over time, this filter can become clogged with debris and dirt, restricting the flow of water. Check the filter and clean or replace it if it is blocked.
3. Leaks in the System: Check the entire washer fluid system for any leaks or cracks in the hoses or connections. Even a small leak can cause a loss of pressure and affect the water flow. Tighten any loose connections and replace any damaged hoses.
4. Low Washer Fluid Level: Make sure the washer fluid reservoir has enough fluid. If the reservoir is low, the pump will not be able to draw sufficient fluid to create pressure. Refill the reservoir with a mixture of water and washer fluid according to the manufacturer's recommendations.
5. Faulty Switch or Wiring: The windscreen washer switch or its associated wiring may be faulty, preventing the washer pump from receiving power. Check the switch for proper functionality and inspect the wiring for any damage or corrosion.
If you have checked all of these potential causes and the problem persists, it's recommended to consult with a professional mechanic or an authorized Fiat service center for further diagnosis and repair.
