ric Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Hi My Starlet SR appears to have the washer function the wrong way around ie pull wiper arm toward you does nothing unless rear wiper is on then it actives washer , and rotate arm end and it actives bonnet washer, is this correct? if not how do i correct the wiring for it. Many thanksRic Quote Link to post Share on other sites
turbo Grant Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I can't remember if the starlets have a 2 wire pump or not. If it is. Just swap the wires round on the pump Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 No thats backwards lolThey might have two pumps, if so switch the plugs over and that should sort it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ric Posted April 18, 2013 Author Share Posted April 18, 2013 ok thanks will check, where is ws pump? i cant see one, hope it not hidden away in wheel arch :-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Thats exactly where it is dude, might be able to take your arch liner out to get to it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Its 2 hoses on one pump, and yes you'll have to pull the inner arch trim out a bit to get at it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 ^^^ if thats the case swap the 2 pipes over. Problem solved Quote Link to post Share on other sites
loguey Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Its probably cleaner and easier to just drop your bumper corner down. less swearing too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
turbo Grant Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I've had too much wiring on my mind! First post was the complicated way. Swapping the pipes rounds is the easy way Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 (edited) I've had too much wiring on my mind! First post was the complicated way. Swapping the pipes rounds is the easy way Tbh it only just clicked a minute ago when it was mentioned two pipes on one pump. I was in the same mind set over thinking things then was just like ADUH.... Swap pipes lol Edited April 18, 2013 by morgey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
turbo Grant Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I've changed loads of pumps on loads of cars. Had to do this easy fix loads. A lot easyer when your looking at it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Haha well uv no excuse then, I've never even looked at the washer bottle on my starlet. Its one of very few things that hasn't gone wrong haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I went to unplug the one on my old loom on the GT and it just completely fell apart, wouldn't unplug and didnt react well to a reasonable amount of force lol. Also, by the looks of it the new loom i have must have had the washer bottle relocated to the boot because there is no plug where there should be haha. Hate starlets.
