dc2r jet washer not working

**blackdc2r** · 13-02-2011 06:15 PM

hi guys, i got a problem with one of my windscreen jet washer. One of them is not working for some reason. I carefully checked and all i see is a little amount of water coming out of the hole, whilst the other one is working. How can I get this fixed?

maybe the hole is blocked or something, my integra, even though isnt block kinda lags to spray the water and 1 of them sprays like 1/4 of the water onto the wiper blades instead so im assuming mine has a block or what not, im gonna try see if i can find the hoses that connect to it and see if anythings blocking it or so, it is an old car so probably likely. Iuno thats what ima try do to mine so like maybe you should try it too =) shouldnt be hard

open your bonnet, you will see the clear tube that carries the water, when the bonnet is held up by the bonnet holder? it squashes the clear tube. suss that, might be squashed when its closes too, or the hose might have leaks in it.

Its not the bonnet holder, cause he said only one is not working. If it was squashing the 2 then they'd both not work. I think its pretty clear that theres a blockage in the one thats not working. You might have to get in there and remove it to clean it out.

could be the nozzle itself, get a needle an poke it where the holes are... usually thats the culprit

yea is there any way i can clear the tube? i tried using a needle to poke the hole but it still aint working. goddamit, this is pissing me off -.-

just get a new tube, its like 2 dollars.

or if you have a air compressor, and needle hose, just shoot it in there.

also you better clean out the tank, its probably got fungus shit inside.

yea ill try. but how on earth do i actually get access to the tubes??

like hisoka said. i got a air compressor. put it into the wiper nozzle to see if the washer bottle would bubble. meaning to me i cleared the lines. did it a few times and some green grime thing appeared. Seems like some fungus crap clogged it.
