LFA Headlight Washer Failure

My 2010 Lexus LFA with a gasoline engine is giving me a bit of a headache. The headlight cleaning system seems to have stopped working, and the windshield washer isn't working either! Any ideas? Could it just be a clog?

Interesting. I had a similar issue with my LFA not too long ago. Does your windshield washer pump sound like it's even trying to work? Mine was totally silent.

Good question! I didn't notice any sound differences. So if it wasn't blocked, did the system just leak in your case?

Yeah, I suspected a leak at first too, but it turned out to be more than that. Given that the headlight and windshield washers are both affected, it might be a cable connection issue or a defective relay. Honestly, I just took mine to the workshop. Saved me a bunch of time.

Thanks for the help. It was in fact a defective cable connection of the pump, as suggested. Luckily nothing major, repair cost 165€. Appreciate the insight!
