Grandland X Windshield Washer Heater Fault
Summary of the thread
A 2020 Vauxhall Grandland X owner is experiencing issues with the windshield washer heater, leading to freezing spray nozzles and an error stored in the memory. The problem is likely due to a faulty connection in the windshield heater circuit. A suggested solution is to have a professional workshop inspect and replace any defective connectors, which resolved a similar issue for another owner at a cost of 95€.

Thanks for the quick reply! Where exactly is the windshield heater located? I'm not sure where to find the cable and plug you're talking about. Any pointers would be great. Is it accessible without taking half the car apart?

Okay, so I did some more digging in my files and the error memory also said something about cable or plug connection of the component defective. I couldn't find anything by myself and just decided to bring it to the workshop. In the end they told me that there was a bad connector somewhere. They replaced it for 95€. In my opinion you should go to the workshop as well. They know more about these things than you and I do.

Thanks a bunch for the info! Sounds like I'm better off letting the pros handle it. I'll book it in at the workshop and mention the connector issue. Hopefully, it will not be too expensive. It's fixed! Connector replaced for 95€.

I had something similar happen on my Grandland X. It was a faulty connection somewhere in the windshield heater circuit. Have you checked the cable and plug connections to the heater itself?
