Front washers stopped working

Post by MSPORTBMW » Tue May 05, 2015 3:59 pm

Hi there.....So today the warning "low washer fluid" came on.  And as the water was smelling a bit i decided to empty the washer bottle by the normal use way. It took a good couple of mins do empty it. It also auto cut out after 20 secs or so of continuous squirting, then started again once i pulled the washer lever.
But all of a sudden it stopped completely......the rear one still works as normal.....but there is no motor noise when trying the fronts.
Im thinking i may have burnt the front washer motor out or could i have blown a fuse?

What is the most likely thing that ive done?  I should just leave things alone i know !!!!!

Any advice guys?
Cheers

Thought id post a quick update......Got in the car the next morning, and all worked fine :)

Maybe the motor got a little too hot and cut out for safety reasons.
