I know you have said you have no noise, but mine packed up a few days ago. It was such a simple thing you may have alerady thought of it- the pipe to the washer jet comes out over the battery and was pinched by the bonnet when closed. I assume it's similar on the S/C to the TDV8.

Hi, have you managed to sort out this problem as I have the same issue on a 2009 S/C.

From what I remember there are 3 identical pumps that push-in to rubber grommets near the bottom of the wash water tank.

Exact same problem manifested itself today. I'll have a look tomorrow, I'm sure it's a 5 minute fix ![]() TVR Griffith Alfa Romeo Mito QV |

It's a while back now, but from memory mine needed a pump.

Rear screen washer working, headlamp washers working, fuse 38 is fine. Assume it must be the washer motor. 2011MY 4.4TDV8 Autobiography Baltic Blue

So near yet so far - I can clearly see the washer pumps in my inspection mirror, but how to access? Remove wheel liner? But can this be done without jacking car up? Or can I leave everything in place and improvise some form of keyhole surgery to extract the offending pump?

The 3 washer motors are simply 'push fitted' into 3 grommets on a horizontal or vertical ledge near the bottom rear of the tank. [horizontal early models, vertical after facelift]

Does any one know any common leak probelems ? Lost all the fluid out of my screen tank. Can see a steady drip. Put a camera up before and could see bottom of middle pump dripping. |

Appreciate this is an old post, but did SomersetRR or anyone else ever find the location of the screenwash relays? I'm having the exact same issue - can see them on the wiring diagram, but can't find them?
