Windshield washer fluid squirters..

THis has bugged me since i got the car years ago, just now going to get it fixed for good.

The pass side nozzle doesnt spray. Fluid comes out of it, but barely. Im guessing its clogged or something. How do i take it out and clean it, or check for clogs.

If its not clogged, what else could be problem? Both sides work from same pump correct?

Try taking a needle and poking around in there.

Cool

It's problaby got car wax in it like mine did on a previous car.I took the tinyest little pin I could find,and poked it(the nozzle thing on the hood),and let the sprayer run for ten seconds or so.Hope this helps.

To test, pull the hose off the squirter and see if fluid squirts out of just the hose. If the hose is plugged, high pressure water unclogs pipes very well. If it's the squirter nozzle, -- dunno. Needles? Maybe buy a new one. They can't be more than $20.
