Fullback Washer Fluid Warning

Hi, my 2019 Fiat Fullback diesel is showing a persistent 'washer fluid low' warning despite topping it up. Mileage is 88212 km. The error is stored, and the windshield washer system is not working. Any ideas before I start tearing things apart?

Summary of the thread

A 2019 Fiat Fullback diesel displayed a persistent 'washer fluid low' warning despite being topped up, and the windshield washer system was non-functional. The issue was suspected to be related to the washer pump, as there was no sound from the pump when activated. After taking the vehicle to a workshop, it was confirmed that the pump was faulty and needed replacement. Once replaced, the system functioned correctly, resolving the issue.

Ugh, I had something similar happen with my old Peugeot 308. Same symptoms, washer fluid light on, system dead. I'm wondering if the pump motor is gone. Have you checked if you can hear the pump trying to work when you activate the windshield washer?

Good point. No, I can't hear the pump at all. Where exactly is the windshield washer pump located on the Fullback? Easier to get to from above or below?

On my Peugeot, it was accessible from the wheel well after removing the plastic liner. I'd suspect the Fiat is similar. Honestly, even if you find it, testing it might be a pain without the right tools. I'd consider a workshop visit at this point.

Thanks! I had a look and you are right. I took it to the workshop, it was indeed the pump (25€). Replaced, and now everything is working fine. Stupid washer motor.
