Firstly hi Everyone
new to this forum so hopeful be able to get some help form you guys as heard some good things...
I have a 2014 Astra J 1.7 Diesel that's just failed its MOT due to wipers not providing water.
both front and back decided to stop so did the usual, blew some air through the pipes and cleaned the nozzles and washer bottle out
wasn't getting a hum from the motor when the stalk was pulled forward or backwards so purchased a new washer pump which solved the rear issue but the front still wasn't working so bought a new stalk from Vauxhall fitted that and no change.
when you push backwards everything works as it should, when you pull forward the wipers sweep as normal but no motor sound or water.
its not the pipes as i swapped round the fittings so pressing backwards sprayed the front and everything was OK
however doesn't seem to want to engage the motor when pulled forward
anyone got any ideas, it doesn't come up with any errors that i can see so very puzzled, have i missed something simple or is this a modual or earthing issue and can it be solved easily.
got a free re-test in 7 days so limited time to fix and this is all it failed on so any help would be much appreciated
over to you guys and girls
