Is the windscreen washer not working as it should? Let's look at removing the pump and its associated parts. Lift the car with a jack and remove the front right wheel, then take off the splash guard to access the windscreen washer pump.

Remove the electric pump connected to the water reservoir. Once the part is removed, disconnect the power connector and pull it away from its housing.
