V50 Headlight Washer Problem

Headlight and windshield washer malfunction on my 2006 Volvo V50 gasoline. Only 28287 km. Suspect cable or relay issue. Anyone seen this?

A 2006 Volvo V50 owner experienced a malfunction with both the headlight and windshield washers, suspecting a cable or relay issue. Another owner suggested checking for leaks around the shared reservoir or pump, as these components are part of the same system. Ultimately, a certified technician identified a defective connection as the cause, and the repair cost was 165€.

Hey! Similar issue with my V50, newer model though. Windshield washer stopped with the headlight washers. Must be same system. Did you check for leaks?

Thanks for the reply. Where should I look for leaks? Any specific parts or areas that usually fail?

I'm no expert, but the shop mentioned a shared reservoir or pump. Check around there? Mine was under warranty, so I took it in. Probably best to get it checked.

Thanks for the shared component info and inspection advice. A certified tech found a defective connection. Repair was 165€.
