Driver's side washer jet = dead
Well one mid winter later it seems my driver's side washer jet stopped working or is plugged - Looks like there be warranty appointment to be made joys just as it started a mini melt.
It's not even accessible or at least it didnt appear to be when i looked in there - hopefully honda techs wont bust something like last time when they went in there. Anyone else have this issue yet? |
You could try dipping it in a drain cleaner or vinegar or something to clean it.

you are in Winnipeg,
Sorta think it is frozen, like you got some inferior or diluted windshield washer fluid. Possible???? |
+1, put some washer fluid in a spraybottle and spray at the nozzle from the outside.
that's how i clear my washer nozzles from time to time. if there is something blocking the hole other than ice, try some thin wire and push it in. |

Haven't looked at my manual or the car (I'm warm and it cold there) but usually the WSW jet is connected by a small hose that can be disconnected from the jet. If the system pumps liquid out when disconnected the jet is plugged. They can be cleaned easily with one of the strands of a multistrrand electrical wire, typically 18 to 20 gage. The copper wont harm the jet as far as i know from using it on dozens of cars. Comes in handy cleaning injectors, carb jets, lots of other orefices omn my computer stuff (power off).. |
sometimes i use a safety pin to unclog it, but thats why i fill my car with bottled water

sometimes mold or frozen you need to squeeze it out.. use anti freeze washers :P
