sprayer onto windshield plugged
 

One of the sprayers the shoot the liquid onto the windshield is not spraying anything, the other side sprays a bit. Something I can do to fix or does it need professional attention? Thanks

there are a couple of threads here that might be helpful in solving your problem if you have already tried to clear the nozzles with a thin piece of wire or something similar. that is the place to start. after that, just search the forum for "nozzle" or "washer" or something related to the item.

The nozzle housing snaps open and a ball shaped nozzle comes out, you can clean it with a small wire.
Pump some fluid through the hoses before putting the nozzle back in position, this will clear the hoses of any more potential blockage.

I just forced a straight pin into the opening that was completely clogged and was able to get it spraying again like new.

I am getting ready to replace my washer reservoir and pump because of slime build up. So if I remove the nozzle housing and the nozzle I would then be able to use compressed air and blow it through the hoses?

I would pull pretty easy on the trigger.

Yes, that trick / fix works 99% of the time, on any car. Also a good way to adjust the aim of the spray, as the nozzle does usually offer a little directional movement.

Does just the end of the nozzle housing open. I have been trying and the whole housing came part of the way out but I don't want to break anything. Should I try a small screwdeiver or pocket knife to try and loosen it.

Thanks

does the top of the housing come off? I was able to get the nozzle housing out of the cowl but I did not want to break any thing.

Re: sprayer onto windshield plugged
 

The top just hinges up at the opposite end to where you press the clip in.
