Need help from anyone who can tell me which fuse is the window washers, my manual lists the fuses and numbers them, but from what I can see there's no numbers on the fuse boxes so its a bit of a guessing game. The fuse I want isn't even mentioned in the manual so I'm unable to check its in the right place or if its blown.

I had a new battery last week and my partner in his wisdom decided to fiddle and check for battery drain, by taking out fuses, the new battery is fine but hes either blown the window washer fuse, or put it in the wrong place and I'm stuck, as there is no mention of the fuse in my manual, so I don't know where to start, I am reluctant to let him at it again as I fear another fuse will end up wrong, can anyone help me?

Thanks

The wipers are working fine and I've checked the fluid, the pumps are not even cutting in back or front washers, so I'm sure its just a fuse, its just establishing which one.

To be honest the quickest way is to sit & remove each fuse and look at them.

Or if you have a fluke meter (or similar) to buzz them out in situ

Thanks I've found it at last, in case anyone has the same problem its a 20 amp fuse under dashboard area, there's only a couple of yellow 20amp fuses and is labelled rear wiper motor and switchboard wiring, this operates the pumps to the window washers too.
