stick you head under the front right and thats where the washer bottle is... you will see the pump there... pull the pump out and the filter is on the pump inlet...

its seriously a 2 min job

the blockage will look like jizz... well mine did anyway, lol

I have a problem with the little black three way piece whatever it's called, true one that connects all the tubes. I cleared the filter thought it may be that but the water flow seems to stop at the little 3 way piece. I clears that with metal wire I don't know why it's not going through..?

Hi anyone with washer bottle problems.

Just had to investigate my VX2 Commodore. The front windscreen ones wouldn't work, but rear OK, so pump working & plenty of water.

So what could it be? Lift bonnet and the washer water hose is hanging off the bonnet, along with a 330 degree (approx) joiner. Easy job, its come off from somewhere, but where? Pulled gently on all the rubber hoses along the firewall and everywhere else - no joy! I had vision that it must have come off and flipped around the drive belt, where obviously it would have a short life!

Eventually found it in the channel on the right hand side, tucked neatly away. Plug it in and away it goes. Refill with water and fluid and all good to go.

Took me far too long to work out the correct location, to plug it in, so I hope this helps someone & gives others a laugh!

VF SV6 Storm
The push button for the windscreen washer on my 2015 VF SV6 Storm Commodore will not depress. Is there a quick fix for this as it has only just happened in the last week? Until I can push the button in I have no way of knowing if there are other problems with the washers.

Any ideas?

Was blinker fluid accidentally used in the washer bottle?


Oh look. There’s a door. I’ll see myself out.
