About Screen Washer

What is the screen washer/what does it do?

Windscreen washers are a simple but effective way of cleaning the windscreen enabling the driver to have a clear view front and rear. They are compulsory on any car with a fixed (i.e. non-opening) windscreen. A windscreen washer motor drives a pump which forces water from a reservoir through a series of tubes leading to the washer jets which squirt water onto the screen. This water combined with the wiper blades action effectively washes and cleans the windscreen.

Getting into the details of the screen washer

The screen washer reservoir is usually found in the front engine compartment. It is most commonly a moulded plastic bottle which will serve both front and rear screens. The motor and pump sit with the bottle and are activated by the driver with a lever on the steering column. The washer jets, usually two per screen, are situated externally and below the screen. These can be angled by the driver to maximise efficient washing of the screen.

Although clean water will effectively clean the screen there are many brands of screen wash available which, when added to the screen wash reservoir, will aid the cleaning process.

What if something goes wrong with the screen washer?

Common faults are failure of the motor/pump (water does not leave the reservoir), leaks in the plastic tubing that connects the reservoir to the washer jets, or the jets themselves being blocked and therefore unable to squirt water onto the windscreen.

SEAT Ibiza trivia

  • The SEAT Ibiza that features in the 2002 PSP game 'Juiced: Eliminator" is the most commonly selected vehicle of choice in the game. The car was also featured in the Matt Damon film The Bourne Supremacy. Of course, it is most well-known for its use in both motorsport and its popularity among police forces.
  • The first-generation SEAT Ibiza had Porsche decals on the side and the rear because the engine used in the car was part-designed by Porsche!
  • Over more than thirty years and four generations, more than 5.4 million SEAT Ibizas have been sold around the world. It remains one of the most immediately recognisable cars in the world.
  • The first SEAT Ibiza went on sale in the UK in 1985. By the end of the decade, it had hit the 10,000 sales a year target.
  • Although the first-generation SEAT Ibiza only had a boot space of 320-litres, it shot up to 1,200-litres when the back seats were folded down. That's a lot more room than you'd expect when you check the car out from the outside.
