Default Clogged Windshield Washers

I've got only one good stream of washer fluid out of 4 working. I've tried the clearing debris from the pinhole with a .... pin. Still getting NO fluid from the other 3 nozzles . Any ideas?

Replace them. Or you might try taking them off and soaking them in vinegar overnight. Then try to clear the debris.

I dunno...never tried it...but vinegar removes hard water stains from my coffee pot. Worth a try anyways if you dont want to just replace them.

Why dont you buy the led windshield nozzles and then paint them the color of your car or black, it will be a lot cheaper.

The craze is gone and we are practically giving the things away.

Try checking the fluid lines too. Mine were only shooting out of one hole and it turned out to be that i had a small crack in one of the lines, meaning that there just wasn't enough fluid actually making it to the nozzles to shoot out of all 4 holes.

Try this: if you have an electric air pump and one of those small needles for blowing up basketballs, put the needle onto/into the washer hole and turn it on. You wouldn't believe how much crap was in that tiny little washer thing.

My orginals were clogged so I got some new ones with White LED lights from Pilot. I think they look pretty cool.

Get some CLR (calcium, LIME,RUST) pour it into a cup and put your nozzles in there over night that would work... You should use windshiled wiper fuild instead of Tap water. Your house (tapwater) must have alot of minerals hhahaha you need to hook up a Water softener for your house.

*CLR (sliver bottle found @ your hardware store)

Or I can sell you mine! only used them for 3 months replaced them with LED nozzles hahaha
