Arkana washer system failure

My 2022 Renault Arkana with a gasoline engine has a faulty headlight cleaning system. Now the windshield washer system is also not working. Cable connection of pump or relay defective?

I had a similar issue with my Arkana. The headlight washer system malfunctioned, and soon after, the windshield washer also stopped working. I initially thought it was just the pump, but have you checked the hose for any kinks or blockages? Sometimes it's a simpler fix than you might expect. It is pretty frustrating, isn't it?

Hose is fine. Could it be a shared fuse, so both systems fail?

That's exactly what happened to mine. Apparently, the headlight washer pump failing can cause a backflow that blows the fuse for the entire washer system. I ended up taking it to the workshop. They replaced the pump, fuse, and a relay, just to be safe. Might be worth having it checked out by a professional.

OK, thanks for the info. Had it checked, you were spot on. Defective pump and relay. Cost me 165€. All good now.
