washer jets help!

[plymcl172]

as above is there anything I can do to avoid buying new ones from renault, the washer jets on the headlights
I am total crap at diy jobs
1 works but the other just sprays at the car infront(which is kinda funny) but its no good for the MOT business which is about now
Something I can put in it maybe ?
please help!

Maybe use a pin in the tiny holes that it comes out of to Change the direction ?
It's prob not that simple though

If it's the headlight washers, have a look at which direction the little 'slot' on the jet is facing. By the sounds of it, it's not leaking but directing forward too much. Get something small and wiggle it back around to face the headlight - a coin should do it!

i havent got the bit on the top its missing

can i put something else in there to make it go forwards

it leaks a bit too

so you don't have the actual plastic washer jet that sticks out the bumper? I'm not quite suer what you mean. renault or 2nd hand I'd imagine for replacements

 

[plymcl172]

yes i have that but as i said the water from the right side squirts forwards instead of at my headlight!

 

[Yellow Dave]

there is only a slot on one side for the water to come out which should be facing the headlight. post a pic up as I can't work out whats wrong

Im guessing your missing the ball that sits inside the jet housing that sticks out the bumper?

 

[J.B.]

Compare the good side to the bad to see what's missing and find something to put in it. Not sure what we can do without actually seeing the thing.

yeah that what i am missing ! can you buy just the ball?

the whole jet is somewhere between £10 and £20 from renault, you cant get the balls seperately
