Washers



J,

	The washer system on the 93-95 90 has one reservoir, but two motors
(one for the headlights and one for the windscreen).  When the lights are
off, only the windscreen is washed.  When the lights are on, both the
windscreen and lights are washed.  
	I am not completely clear on your description, but it sounded like
your light washers were working OK and your windscreen washers were not
working at all.  If this is indeed the case, the washer pump for your
windshield is not working.  Is there fluid coming out of the headlight
washers.  I had a case where a hose popped of my pump and the whole
reservoir drained.  If you get under the car and take off the plastic skid
plate, the reservoir is located aft of the driver's side front wheel up in
the fender.  The pumps are located at the base of the reservoir.  The pump
nearest to you is for the washers and the one behind it is for the lights.

	I hope this helps a bit.
