"Identify where the windscreen washer reservoir is and tell me how you would check the windscreen washer level."
Remember, the examiner only wants you to point at the washer reservoir, don't get your hands dirty!
The windscreen washer reservoir is shown on this picture:

The windscreen washer has to work - it's a legal requirement. If you think about it, it's easy to see why. Sometimes on a damp day, there is so much dirt coming up off the road from other traffic, your wipers will just create a smeary mess - unless you use the washers.
The washer reservoir is full in this image - you can see the geen liquid. The liquid is water mixed with screenwash, which is available at places like Halfords. In the winter, screenwash (use lots, and not much water) will stop the washers freezing.

Check your washers at least once a week and before long journeys.
- Remember - RTFM!! Read The Flippin' Manual - before doing this on your own car.
