    MOT window washer check

    Question,
    Would I fail my MOT if my rear washer pump didn't work?

    ***
    3. The windscreen washers do not provide enough liquid to clear the windscreen in conjunction with the wiper(s)
    ***

    This is the closest reason I can find, but i presume they can't refer to my rear window as the 'windscreen'...?

    Good point. My REAR washer has never worked and it always passes the MOT!

    FRONT WASHERS DO need to be working though!

    I would suggest the REAR it is NOT an MOT test.

    Cheers,

    Steve.
