Elgrand Headlight Washer Fault

My 2001 Nissan Elgrand with a diesel engine has a faulty headlight cleaning system, and the windshield washer system no longer functions. The mileage is 197071 km. I suspect a defective cable connection of the pump or relay. Any insights?

Summary of the thread

The 2001 Nissan Elgrand has a faulty headlight cleaning system and a non-functional windshield washer system. The suspected causes include a defective cable connection of the pump or relay. A suggestion was made to check for leaks or kinks in the hose running from the washer fluid reservoir to the pumps. The recommended solution is to visit a workshop for professional diagnosis and repair.

Hey, that sounds familiar! I had a similar issue with my Elgrand. Though mine's a bit newer, same brand, of course. Did you check for any leaks in the hose? It could be like a kink in a garden hose, stopping the flow to both.

Thank you for your response. Could you please provide more detail regarding the location of the hose you are referring to?

Sure thing. It's tough to describe exactly, but it runs from the washer fluid reservoir to the pumps. Honestly, tracing it is a pain. It's probably easier to just take it to a workshop; I did, and they sorted it quickly. Cost me about 165€.
