Clear Tesla Roadster Washer Pump

[xiaoteshushu]

Today, I found my roadster washer is broken, the water can is full, but no water comes out. I thought the pump is broken, but it make ziizizi noise ,it was working.

so I thought maybe it's only chocked somewhere. I checked the EPC to know where the pump is.

so, I got the pump out of the car, it's easy ,jut remove the cover and screws ,you can get it.

Here is the pump, there is a filter between the pump and the can, All you need is pull the pumb out of can ,and using a high pressure gun to blow the filter and pump.

Now, it works.

I have had this a couple of times, after completely emptying the reservoir.
When you can manage to put a little pressure ( funnel upside down) on the reservoir and someone operates the washer pump you can make it work again.

One of the frequent causes of this problem is lack of use; bacteria can build up and clog the line. Simple solution is to use the washer maybe once a month, even if you don't need it, just to keep things flowing. (I learned this the hard way)
