Peugeot 307 Washer Fluid Issue

My 2007 Peugeot 307, diesel engine, has a weird issue at 69503 km. Washer fluid low warning is on, but the windshield washer system won't squirt. The error is stored. I topped up the wiper water level, but nothing changed. Any ideas before I start taking things apart?

Ah, the dreaded Peugeot washer gremlins! I had a similar issue with my 307, although the error codes were different. Does the pump even make a noise when you try to use the washers? If not, it could be a dead pump. They're not exactly known for their longevity. Have you checked the fuse for the washer motor? That's often overlooked. I remember chasing my tail for hours only to find a blown fuse...

Cheers for the reply! No noise at all from the pump, so that's not a good sign. Where exactly is the fuse located?

Right, no pump noise is telling. The fuse box is usually located in the engine bay, near the battery. Consult your owner's manual to identify the correct fuse - it is imperative you replace it with the correct amperage fuse. I would also recommend consulting a trusted mechanic. When I had this issue, I ended up taking my car to the workshop, and they told me it was the pump and the total repair cost was 25€. They replaced the pump, cleared the error, and all was well.

Thanks for the help. Took it to the local guy, exactly as you said. New pump, error cleared, 25€ lighter. Sorted.
