Default windscreen washers

Hey all, for the past few days my screen wash on my passenger side has stopped working. I have poked a pin in to see if there is anything blocking it, there isn't as far as I can see, the pump is operating as normal and the driver side wash is also working fine. On the level it is well above half where a "full" marker would be. Any ideas? Kind of a shit time for this to happen haha.

Trace the tube back there is a one way valve that can get gummed up, give it a clean and all should be OK.

BTW Happy new year!

The non return is just before the washer jet, they have a small spring inside that can snap, you can get a similar replacement from halfords
