Rifter Windshield Washer Heater Fault

Experiencing an issue with my 2023 Peugeot Rifter (electric engine). The windshield washer heater seems faulty. I get an error stored and the spray nozzles freeze in cold weather. Anyone else had this issue? I suspect a defective cable or plug connection.

I had something similar happen with my Rifter. Were you able to check the fuse box? It might be a blown fuse related to the windshield wipers or the washer motor.

Thanks for the tip! Where exactly is the fuse box located, and do you remember which fuse number it was?

Not exactly sure where it is in your model, but should be under the bonnet near the battery or inside the glovebox. I didn't fix it myself, I just took it to the workshop and they sorted it out. Best to get it checked by a professional, especially if you're still under warranty.

Thank you! It turned out to be exactly as you suspected - a defective plug connection and corroded contacts. Workshop replaced it for 95€. All sorted now. Really appreciate the help!
