No washer bottle water.
« on: 27 January 2023, 18:31:48 »

Washer bottle full and I can hear the pump working but no washer water.

Cleaned the washer jets but still nothing wet at front and rear.

Washer pump filter? ( if there is one).....fuse?....which I doubt as I can hear the pump trying to work.

I think the washer bottle pump on the Signum serves both front and back  screens.

Mmm if it's anything like my Mundano, the washer bottle and pump is hidden way up behind the front bumper....  ::)

Behind the passenger side wheel arch  I believe. Which sounds like easy access except all the screws are well shagged making a relatively simple operation anything but......

There is absolutely no relationship between the humble common as muck Vectra, and the majestic, rare, and highly desirable Signum, Ronny. ::) ::) :)

Could be the rubber bung filter clogged
some of these "front and rear" pumps have a valve in that sticks.
the BCM selects front OR rear by reversing polarity on the motor .

Pop out the battery and you might be able to dig down to it from above. The filler neck is also removable to create some space ;)
