Heated Jets?

Hi there!

Just became new member but I've been readding the forum since a year ago. My D3 is now 26.000 miles almost a year old.
Two weeks ago was freezing in the country side, -13º C, the car was already heated sitting outside iddeling for 20 min tried to wash the windshield when water didnt come out I had to change the fuse (5 amp) inside the globe box. Maybe understandable because of the otside temp, but last week end with temp around 1-2º C did the same and I have to change the fuse again, not easy because of the small place where main fuses are.

Anybody has had the same problem? How do I know if my jets are heated?
Thanks and congratulations for this usefull forum.

Sonic,

My manual says 5 amp for the water bomb, and it really was a 5 amp. Could it be possible to switch it to a 10 amp fuse without getting into trouble? There car will be at the 45 K kilometers services in two week and they will decide.

Thanks

There is a LR update that recommends swapping the 10A fuse for a 15A one - click here
