Consumer Description

I HAD RECENTLY SCANNED MY VEHICLE WITH A DIAGNOSTIC SCANNER BECAUSE MY WINDOW WASHERS WERE NOT SPRAYING TO CLEAR THE WINDSHIELD WHEN MANUALLY ACTIVATED BY THE STALK. THE CODE SHOWS A SHORT IN THE CIRCUIT SOMEWHERE BETWEEN THE STALK AND THE WASHER PUMP. I TRIED REPLACING THE PUMP BUT SAME OUTCOME NO WASHER FLUID WOULD DISPENSE THIS IS A VERY BIG INCONVENIENCE MOSTLY BECAUSE WHERE I LIVE MOST COMMUTES ARE PART HIGHWAY AND PART SIDEROADS/ DIRT ROADS, SO THINGS START TO GET DIRTY AND VISIBILITY IS DRAMATICALLY REDUCED. IM REALLY NOT TRYING TO PAY FOR A HARNESS OR TO GET THE LOOM PULLED APART TO FIND THE BUG. TO KEEP EVERYTHING LOOKING STOCK
