The Ford Capri Laser Page

I had to mess with my washer pump wiring to get it working . It is earthed thru the stem switch so I ran a new power feed to the pump .........but , when I operate the washer switch all I get is the washer ....are the wipers supposed to also work or do you switch them on seperatly ?

Washer switch just works…washers. None of this new fangled wipers at the same time and an extra wipe 30 seconds later to catch errant trickles…

Thanks B@fink ,Im pleased I didnt muck round to long trying to figure that out . It was before I got some proper wiring diagrams (from a400mod .....thanks ).

Hi all,
The windscreen washer is alive once again. It was simply the male spade connector on the side of the fuse box needing a good clean.

I had the mot on Friday and despite the car being unwelded and really solid, there was a small rust hole half way down the drivers side A post visible when you open the door. That was the only thing it failed on. It’s a really strange place to rust. Is that a known place they rust? It looks like I’ll need to get the door off to weld it.
Cheers again for all your suggestions on what to check.

Ner ner ne ner ner! Told you so.

But seriously, glad it was a simple fix for you and that even after all these years without a Capri, I can still remember some things.

It may be that the a pillar is well rusted inside and that hole is just the tip of the iceberg. A small usb flexi camera is a good way to see stuff like this . Cheap as chips on ebay
