Colours and amps? No idea what that's about. Your pump's probably frozen.

Fair enough. I don't think there's anything special on your 2001, not even a relay. I think I'd still check for voltage at the motor just in case you picked up a duff one.

Do your stalks look like this:

it could be the first com2000 i got to replace mine didnt operate the squirter, ie not even the wipers moved when pulled back, if when you pull back the stalk back and the wipers move then its the pump

Classic screwed com2000 I'm afraid :( There is a fiddle involving a piece of sponge viewtopic.php?f=5&t=11868&p=104964&hilit=sponge#p104957 - but with the squirters gone too your best bet is to replace.

I'm still amazed you have a 2001 car with com2000, kind of turns everything on its head. Any chance of your vin number? :supafrisk:

That's kind of the unofficial model - D8 1996.199, D9 1999-2004, it's not what Peugeot call them, they're just 406 and 406 new.

Nope, early ones are just like the D8 (although I think the stalks are a little different)
