I filled mine up 10 days ago and already have a low-level indicator light.

After replacing the fuse do your windshield wipers & washers work as normal? The only thing I can suggest is that after replacing the fuse, operate the washers with headlights off, see if fuse blows or not. Try with headlights on, fuse blows? If I understand right the fuse shouldn't blow unless you have a siezed pump and operate HEADLIGHT washers, drawing higher current and blowing the fuse.

No prob. on the timing belt, I had to look that up to remind myself.

In fact, I rarely wash my window. But especially, the headlights, I only use those washers when the car is stopped. I've heard of too many people losing the plastic cap that incorporates into the bumper because they washed their headlights while moving.

But last week, I was in Montreal. It was snowy and I was getting a lot of road spray, so I was washing the window rather frequently. While moving, I turned off the headlights, pulled the stalk to wet the window, then turned the headlights back on. I noticed at one point that my lights were really dim, so I figured they were filthy. At the next light, I washed the window, fully expecting the headlight washers to work. They didn't. I did it a few times, then the fuse blew.

They used to work, I know that much, they just don't work anymore. Now, it is entirely possible that when the shop that did my timing belt put the front bumper back on, that something did not get hooked up properly. If that were the case and my headlight washers didn't work, would that place the additional load on the system causing the fuse to burn?

BTW, with the new fuse, so far the washer pump for the window works fine, no fuse blowing. I tried it once w/the lights on, they headlight washers did not work. I have not tried it since because I don't want the fuse to blow again.

Maybe if they where stuck or obstructed from rising...but that shouldn't be an issue from removing the bumper..My money is on the pump, when I first saw them I would change the fuse and confirm by operating until the fuse blew, now if the fuse is blown I go right to the pump.

OK, cool, thanks for the advice.
