Hyundai Santa Fe Windscreen Washer Motor Fault

remove wiper blades and lower windscreen cover drainage pipes should be in far left and right corners also make sure that water is not coming from heater matrix

Hi, First check that you have wash liquid in tank. second make sure that it will not freeze by putting alcohol in your mix of water and soap. You can buy it already mixed at most service stations. Check pump for corosion on contacts.
Good luck.

Someone, like a competent electrician, should diagnose this problem. Either the problem is in the wiring, OR, the wiper motor is INTERMITTENTLY shorting out blowing the fuse. Have the vehicle properly diagnosed by a qualified Hyundai Service Technician. Best advice.

If the pump runs then the nozzles are blocked. Use a pin or needle to clear the blockage from the nozzle.(Stick it in the little hole pointed at the windscreen.) Be careful not to break the pin off in the nozzle.
See if you are able to pull the pipes off from the underside of the nozzles. Clear the nozzle using the pin. Then point the pipe into the underside of the nozzle and activate the washer in order to rinse the nozzle.

check the windscreen washer strainer it could be glogged up or it coud be a faulty windscreen motor pump.

if you have been using windscreen washer fluid then the additive can form a sludge at the motor.
the washer pump is situated behind the inner guard on the right hand side if u are sitting in the car.
this is held in place with a rubber surround which is removed by pulling the motor and rubber surround outwards.
wash the motor in warm water and reinstall.
hope this is of some use to you.

hi is there a noise coming from the washer when operated. it is posible there is a blockage in the tank at the pump intake. some windscreen wash additaves have a habbit of forming a heavy gunk. always use the liquid type. if there is no noise it is possibly a blown fuse or a faulty pump.

disconnect the tubes and blow through each one to make sure nothing is in them and then take a straight pin and poke it in each hole to clear those out if no washer solution comes through then then it maybe the washer pump motor listen to hear if the pump is working while someone pushs the button

try runing direct power to the washer pump

If it is the same as some other Chevrolets they have 2 pumps attached to the side of the washer bottle. 1 for rear and 1 for front windscreen
