V50 windscreen washer not working
 
Hi, recently my windscreen washer stopped working, I was wondering if anyone here has any tips on fixing it.

I checked the fuses and fuse 48 was blown. After replacing the fuse I pulled the washer lever but the washer was still not working. I could hear the relay clack, but I didn't hear any sound from the pump. After holding the lever for a bit longer the fuse blew again. Next thing on my plan is to try to get to the washer pump, but from what I've read it's not that simple. What else should I check and what's the best way to get to the pump?

Any tips appreciated.

Btw, the rear washer has not been working for couple years now but that doesn't bother me much.

Thanks, it worked. I would just like to add that there was also some kind of plastic thing that was holding the tank (besides 2 screws). I broke it off, since it was very difficult to get to, the tank seems to hold just fine without it.
