How do you replace Windscreen washer pump/ Renault Megane Coupe 1999?

Windscreen washer pump no longer squirts water on windscreen. Pump still makes noise, have checked pipes and squirters for blockage still no water squirting on to windscreen. Have purchased second hand pump of Ebay and was wondering how the devil do you fit!!
Car model is Renault Megane Coupe Phase II 1999 (on a T plate)

hi if it's like mine, i have a renault megane coupe, you take the black plastic off the inside of the wing, where the wheel is, look up inside the wing and you should see it, then pop the water pump out and disconnect the clip, then the pipes. hope this help's.

for peoples future refrnce it is located in drvers side arch and if you take inner arch out the resivar is between your door and the arch its v tight but you can get your hand up and the motor will just push up and out (becarefull you will get wet!!) pull hoses off and electrical clip and there you have it.

just incase you havent brought another yet these usually corode and dry out inside the plastic moulding,

if you split the two and take out the motor clean it up soak in wd 40,

let it drip dry and then move the shaft round to ease up bench test the motor again and it mite go!!

before putting back into case drop a bit of motor oil on shaft bearing ,

put back into plastic moulding run a bit of silicone round the join put back into resivar and see

(becarfull not to snap the shaft that penitrates the water resivar or you will not get sucktion or tight seal!!)
