Insignia Washer System Failure

My 2021 Vauxhall Insignia diesel has a weird problem. The headlight cleaning and windshield washer systems both stopped working at 196530 km. Could this be a cable issue with the pump or relay? Anyone seen this?

I had a similar issue with my Insignia. It turned out to be a faulty pump for the headlight washers. Does the front of your car get wet at all when trying the washer system? It could be a leak.

Thanks, but I don't see any leaks. Since both the headlight and windshield washers failed, could a bad relay be the cause, instead of the pump?

Good point about the relay. But when both my washer systems failed at once, it was the pump. Check the relay first, but be ready for a shop visit.

Okay, I'll check the relay and pump. Prepare for a costly shop visit. It was just a pump in the end, cost 165€.
