Hey,

On my car the windscreen water thingy wont shoot out water on the drivers side, I tried to unclog it by sticking a pin in there and its not working now. Whoopsie.
My brother said I need to buy something to fix it, is he full of crap? I think he just doesnt want to help me fix it. What a prick LOL.


Thanks.

quickest way would be - go to dealer , hand money over - get new one,fit it, job done.

Hmm, I suppose. Car is due for a service.

You should be able to remove the plastic tube that runs fluid from the pump/reservior to the underside of the nozzle - that way you can know if it's the nozzle or tube that's blocked.

If it's the nozzle then you should be able to remove it (the one on my Pulsar had two squeeze clips recessed into the underside of the bonnet) and trying soaking it in something to dissolve/remove whatever might be blocking it - I used wax/grease remover and fixed mine up a treat yesterday.

Alternatively if it is shagged then you can buy a replacement and fit it yourself without having to pay someone else for the pleasure!

check all the hoses underneath are connected properly as well... one might be leaking (unlikely)

probably just calcium build up or polish or something stuck in the jet - should be able to unclog it using a pin or something similiar, if not pull it out n stick it into some sorta solvent (wax remover, CLR or the type), if all else fails you could buy a replacement pretty cheaply

all fixed?
at work we stuck a small tool in the holes or blow it with the blower gun.

otherwise wait till next service and let them know theyd be able to fix it easily
