One of my washer jets is not doing its squirty thing.... Is this a well known failing? I guess it could just be blocked though I somewhat suspect it may not be

 

Probably a kink in the hose, or blocked up with wax

 

If when you activate you dont get a puddle under the car then its obvious to be as in said, a blockage due to wax build up... cure is self explanitory, remove under shield on the relevant side turn the wheels towards the side you are working for maximum access.. (ie if its drivers side turn the wheel clockwise to full lock)

The clips that hold the undershield are easy, lever up the centre of them first then they come out with ease. access the appropiate pipes an disconnect / reconnect till you find the blockage.

Note the supply comes from the drivers side, one pipe along top of flitch to drivers side lamp then t-junc across through bumper reinforcement to passenger side.. all will come apparent when you look.

 

so did you fix this adp?

my screen washers are acting odd - drivers side working intermittently but water is coming out, must be a partial blockage somewhere - how do i get it off anyone?

 

Does it look like this?

It might be a disgruntled one like I had

 

 

Doddle to pop of and clean. Take the jet off and blow.

 

i wiggled it and it moved.. just didn't want to break it (ham fisted)

i'll give it a go tomorrow
