Washer Fluid Tank Leaking for 2 Years

[Weasel]

I'd start with the fuse, then you could check power to the pump motor with a volt meter or test light. It's the bigger pump with the bigger diameter output hose on the washer bottle.

ok i took out all the pumps and checked and there is no blockage. i will try the test. thanks. do you know which fuse number is for that one large pump?

[Weasel]

not off hand, but you could find it in the "onlineWDS" link on the page top, thats the wiring diagrams.

check for the elbow connectors from the head lights sprayers it may been loose or crack (check under the bumber for water leak)

checked the headlamp washers. no leaks. i've took off the tank too and there is no cracks. when I press the headlamp washer button nothing comes out from the headlamps but just the windshield washers. I've checked the elbows and no clogs. should I try blowing the lines with a compressor?

ok I will look. they have separate fuses for each of the pumps?

My windshield wiper reservoir is empty after three days. Yesterday, I tried to show my dad the seemingly cloggged rear windshield wiper washer, and I think one of these hoses may have popped off the tank which is making all the fluid leak. The inside of my car seems completely dry, haven't noticed anything wet. Is it just a loose hose?

You won't know until you fill the reservoir with water, and watch to see where it is leaking. Look around the bottom of the reservoir, where the pumps are mounted.

Check the tank itself. More often than not it is the grommets holding onto the washer pumps that go bad and leak. If it is not too cold, fill the tank with water and see if you see a leak. If it is cold then fill with washer fluid and do as said.

Mine was making all 8 liters waste in 2 days. (it was wet under the reservoir(costs 15$ @junkies)) but then all of a sudden it stopped...
