Washer Jets Wont Work

[JTP]

Take a hair dryer and warm up the lines. Then refill with de-icing washer fluid.

well......

All lines and everything has now melted, i took the pipe off the nipple behind the wheel liner and bleed the system so it was empty. I then put at least 4 litres (a gallon) of antifreeze/washer mix into the tank, then tried the washer jets for a while and still nothing comming through

Does anybody have a diagram of how the washer system works? just so that i can try and eliminate the problem.

The washer tank hasnt cracked or split because there isnt a leak, the hose from the tank to the nipple hasnt cracked because it isnt leaking, and it isnt blocked because i bled the system through the hose.

So i dont know where else to look now???

Auto Atlanta has an interactive Parts diagram on their WEB site for the Boxster. I just looked and they do show the Windscreen washer system and all of the parts and parts numbers (they sell Porsche parts). I am not affiliated with them in any way, here is the link.

cheers for the link, but i cant find where abouts the windscreen washer system is on that site? what sub-section does it come under?

thanks

The diagram is under electrical; 4th row down 3rd column over. Hover your mouse over the block and an inset will pop up. If you want to see a part number, look at the corresponding number then left click with your mouse and a parts list will appear corresponding to the number you just looked at.

Happy to help, gave me a reason to finally post on the site. Instead of lurking
