Headlight washers
Hi,
Has anyone had a problem with the headlight washers on a 2012 530d F07 They were working fine a few weeks ago but now nothing. my local garage said to check relay, went to main dealer but was told No Relay but may need a new Headlight washer control unit. Has anyone got any opinions on this. |

a very detailed explanation, i wish the dealer had been as helpful. looks like a diagnostics is needed going by you information. I will book it in and post back the outcome. sounds expensive either way. |

Hi Tommy. I advise to check the basics...eg., fuse, connectors, fluid level, etc. I could be as simple as such. Maybe the pump has gone out?
If you are handy with a VOA meter, here is the electrical schematic for the system... https://www.newtis.info/tisv2/a/en/f...tem/1VnYJr1mjo Cheers. |
