Scenic Windshield Washer Heater Problem

My 2006 diesel Renault Scenic (214501 km) has a windshield washer heater issue. I'm getting an error, and the spray nozzles freeze in the cold. Could it be a bad cable or plug?

I had similar problems on my Scenic. Frozen washer jets are a pain in winter. Are the windshield wipers affected? Maybe the washer fluid isn't suited for freezing temps, causing it to freeze inside the nozzles and block the spray.

The wipers work fine. I'm using a specialized sub-zero washer fluid. Did your Scenic have the same symptoms and error?

Yes, identical: error code and frozen nozzles, even with winter fluid. I took it to a workshop. It was a faulty connection, like you suspected, and the windshield washer heater needed replacement. Cost me around 95€.

Thanks for sharing. I'll take my car to a workshop to have the connections checked and maybe replace the heater.
