Default How do you replace the Windscreen Washer Pumps 1990 XJS V12

The Windscreen Washer is not working on my 1990 XJS V12 You cannot hear the Pump running so I think it must be either gummed up or burned out.

I had a look at the Washer Bottle on my 'Scrap Car' and it looks as if the Pumps are moulded into the side of the Bottle.

It doesn't look as if you can take the Pumps out, does anyone know if you can and how you do it?

Or do you have to buy a complete new unit.

The Headlight Washer Pump is working Fine but the Windscreen Washer Pump is not.

Pump just fits into a grommet and snaps into moulded recess on side of reservoir.
