Peugeot 408 Headlight Washer Problem

Hi, I have a 2022 Peugeot 408 hybrid with around 230k km. The headlight cleaning system has stopped working, and the windshield washer doesn't spray anymore. I checked the fuse, but it seems fine. Any ideas?

Hey, I had a similar issue with my Peugeot 408. Not sure about the year, but it sounds like a bad connection somewhere. Did you check the hose that goes to the headlight washers? Maybe it's come loose or is kinked.

Thanks for the tip! Where exactly is that hose located? I'm not very familiar with the system layout, and I don't want to start taking things apart without knowing what I'm doing.

It's tricky to get to, usually tucked behind the bumper, near the headlight. Honestly, if you're not comfortable poking around, it might be worth getting it checked out by a workshop. Could be a faulty pump relay or a bad connection. I had to pay around 165€ for the repair.

Okay, thanks for the heads-up! I suspected it might be something like that. I'll take it to a mechanic; I'm not confident enough to fix it myself. Hopefully, it's just a loose wire.
