2004 citroen c5 1.8 petrol - Windscreen washer's - ando1

Hope this helps someone else just today I have had a problem with my front washer's not working just a few bubbles of water coming out and all the water going out of the rear window jets when the washer stalk was operated this should not happen water should only exit rear jets when the button on the end of the stalk is turned forward the motor was working normally so after trying other things I found the way to sort it was by disconnecting the supply tube at the first joint by the edge of the bonnet and squeezing tightly together whilst operating the stalk to wash position which built up pressure and all worked normally again after reconnecting someone suggested the car need to go on a code reader and it could be the comms unit on the steering column all expensive ways if you have trouble please try this first

Regards ando1
