2011 W212 Winshield Fluid Not Spread
Look for troubleshooting idea on 2011 W212 WInshield Fluid pump. When I pressed inward on the left switch level, the winshield flush is not spraying. Check the reservoir and it is full. Just check the fuse #10, #13 and #38 (probably not related), they seem to be all good. Where is the pump connector, I think I should check the pump connector if I can find it... Or anything else I should check before conclude the pump is the culprit. Anyway, if it is, is there a reference some where on how to replace it (I prefer to work on it myself).

Cool. Thanks Konistiger. As I will need to remove the front wheel and fender to access the pump and connector, I figured I might as well get the replacement pump ready. Searching on FCPEuro side. I found the orginial MB brand
https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/mer...mer-2218690121
(~USD $37)
and also the after market (Febi brand):
(~USD $10)

The strange thing is the on FCPEuro site, it says on the Febi "Does not fit", but the parts number says otherwise, I assume it is their mistake and both should fit. Now the question is anyone has good experience on the Febi parts? It priced at 1/3 of the mercedes brand.

Not sure on the Febi brand, but it should have a lifetime guarantee, just like everything else they sell...right?
