Take off the bumper and replace it/test for voltage under operation.

Get some quotes from dealerships and parts suppliers if it is faulty.

Best advice for Megane owners: sell it before it bankrupts you!

Yes - it sounds like a big job but takes 15 minutes. I'm being serious. Paddy aka Ulrich does this to change his headlamp bulbs.

Have a search - the process must have been described many times.

Yes, I have read about people taking off their bumpers in order to change the headlight bulbs.

I'll check for voltage and if needs be change the part. (Not a good look carrying around a bottle of water to splash on the windscreen!)

Thanks for your reply.

Its cheap, its cheapher if you buy a Peugeot water pump, the 307 model has the same water pump, the brand Renault, Citroen and Peugeot are engraved on the motor. Just take it out and go to the Peugeot garage and buy one. You can also have a problem with your lever, the problem may be there too..

cheers
