Windscreen washer jets / pump

[kristennetsirk]

Any help much appreciated on this - I have a Boxster S 2000 plate and the windscreen washer jets stopped working a while ago..

I've searched the web high and low for some info on the location of the washer jet pump / directions for replacing it.. has anyone done this ?

I took it to a dealer the last time it stopped working and they managed to take it apart and get it working again, is this easy ?

Thanks

I have the same problem and plan to change it soon. The "Bentley" 986 repair manual has a detailed section on how to replace the washer motor. The washer fluid container is located behind the LF wheel within the fender arch (behind the fender cover near the bulkhead/firewall. You have to remove the wheel and arch cover to access the fluid container which holds the little motor. You have to remove the washer fluid before you attemt to remove the container itself. Once removed, you can re/re the little motor - replacing is reverse of removal.
