Focus Washer Fluid Warning and Pump Failure

My 2010 Ford Focus diesel has a persistent 'Washer fluid low' warning, and the windshield washer system isn't working. I've checked the reservoir, and it's full. There's also an error code. Anyone else had this issue?

Hey, I had something similar with my Focus. The warning light was on even after I filled up the washer fluid. Did you check the spray jets themselves? Sometimes they get clogged and that throws everything off.

Interesting thought! Was your system completely dead, or just weak? And what did you do to fix it?

Yeah, mine was completely dead, no spray at all. I tried cleaning the jets, but no luck. Ended up taking it to a workshop; they sorted it out pretty quickly.

Sounds like my issue. I'll try a workshop. It was the pump, and it cost 25€.
