Washer jet problem!!

[V1NNY]

Well my washer jets aren't working, you can hear the motor working, niether front or back work. About a week ago when i used them they spluttered a lot and it started squirting air out with the water, sorry not the best description, now nothing comes out front or rear jets and all you can hear is just the motor working any ideas??

obvious but put water in the container??.. not intended to make u sound stupid by the way.

Full to the brim mate lol

Did you let the bottle run dry at any time . Sometimes you can get a build up of sludge in the bottom of the bottle and it'll block the pipes .

is the water going down when you spray? isit leaking out from under the car or anythin?

 

[V1NNY]

no nothing leaking, did let it go down to the bottom as it was raining on the motorway and loads of spray, how do i clear it if its a blocked pipe then? its doing my nut in lol

 

[MRBILLYUK]

Sounds like its blocked at the bottle end . I've never took the bottle out so not sure really . You could try blowing compressed air down one of the pipes and see if it unblocks it at the bottle end .Other than that fcuk knows mate , sorry .

 

[V1NNY]

Any other ideas??

limelite in bottom of bottle for an hour then spray rear wiper and keep hose over rear of car to wash it off?

well syphoned out the bottle and it kind of works, lacks water pressure though and it still splutters out
