Hi everyone,

I recently took my Suzuki Kizashi for its TÜV inspection, and unfortunately, it failed due to the headlight washer system not functioning. The windshield washer system works perfectly, and when I press the button for the headlight washers, I can hear the pump running. However, no fluid is being sprayed, and there's no leakage underneath the car, so it doesn't seem like there's a crack or leak in the system.

I'm wondering if anyone here has had a similar issue or can suggest where to start troubleshooting. A few specific questions I have:
  • Does the Kizashi have separate pumps for the windshield and headlight washers, or is it the same pump for both systems?
  • Could something like calcification or a clog in the system be the cause?
  • What would be the best way to check for blockages or any other common failures with the headlight washers?
Any advice on how to approach this would be really appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
