The washer pump when frozen is protected by a fuse.Depending on year (08) open bonnet next to battery box and lift off fuse box.Fuse F3 (10A) is at base next to F14(40A).Only 31P from main dealer!!!

I've only just fixed the same problem on my daughter's Peugeot 306!

The pump was making no sound. I pulled the electrical connector from the pump (pressing in the wire retaining clip as I did so) then connected a 12 volt bulb across the feed connections. My daughter pressed the wash/wipe switch and the bulb lit, confirming that a supply was getting to the pump.

I then used an old trick. After refitting the electrical connector, I got my daughter to keep dabbing the switch to give 'jolts' of power to the pump whilst I repeatedly tapped its side with a small hammer.

After about a minute of that treatment, the pump started working again. I advised my daughter to use the pump every couple of days during the cold weather to help keep it free.
