Have you got any charge? If not check the wiring at the back of the charging terminal,if water has been getting in it corrodes the wiring and the battery won't take a charge.

A flow controller on a backpak is not needed for windows as the pump only delivers 2.6 lit a min which is only just enough water to clean a widow and a struggle on first cleans. I fitted a by pass on mine and have never needed to use it.

flow controller seems to have gone, only comes on @ full speed    using too much water,    ready to try and fit new one sent out to me via WCW
