Can hear the noise but nothing comes out the sprayer? Just weird how every electric part of the tailgate doesnt work, i could understand one maybe two things.. where abouts are the fuses on these leons? ive been a ford man for 9 years and i feel like im in the dark when it comes to these, its taken me a week to finally get the right grade oil to put in it !

I've come from ford after 11 years myself and it took a while to get use to a vag car. The fuse box is at the end of the dashboard at the drivers end, open the drivers door and look on the side of the dashboard and there's a cover that pulls off to reveal the fuse box.

Check the carpet in the boot on the n/s and see if it's wet underneath screenwash might be leaking

For the washer jet, in the water pipe there is a connection behind the boot interior light on the left as you look in from the back. This can come apart (wet carpet in that area a clear indication!) and needs to be pushed back and cable tied to secure it better. It can also come away in the boot lid itself I believe.

Well my heated rear screen worked earlier, then a bit later on it stopped again.

My stereo cuts in and out, but if i open the passenger door it comes back on, stereo stays on but sound goes.

Awesome car just has a shed load of electrical gremlins !

Update on this, got my rear washer working hose had come off in the boot and down the side !

Rear fogs and reverse lights now work after taking bulbs out then refitting them? weird.

Still i have no rear wiper and the boot lock mechanism doesnt work ! ebay time i think !
