C5 Headlight and Windshield Washer Issue
Summary of the thread
A 2023 Citroen C5 hybrid owner reported issues with the headlight and windshield washer systems not functioning. The initial suspicion was a bad cable to the pump or a relay. Suggestions included checking the fuse, hoses, and connections. Ultimately, the problem was identified as a defective cable connection, which was resolved by a workshop appointment.

That's a good idea about the fuse. But would a fuse really stop both systems completely? Or is something else going on with the hoses and connections?

A fuse is the first thing to check, but if both are out, it could be more than that. Maybe a leak in the hose or the pump? If you're not comfortable checking, the dealership might be best to diagnose it. It will save you time.

I'll book an appointment with the workshop. I thought it might cost around 165€. It was a defective cable connection, and it's fixed now.

That sounds annoying. Do the headlight cleaning and windshield washer share a pump? Have you checked the fuse for that system? Maybe it's something simple before you dive into wiring.
