i have a prob with my washer jets the rear ones spray ok but the front ones are crap sometimes only one will work and they spray an uneven very fine mist ov water could they be blocked in the jet or will it be something to do with the washer bottle.

 

thanks

 

phil.

the jets are probably blocked, i think they are about 5quid or so from nissan, its worth changing them first,

 

mine had a blockage for MOT but it cleared itself

Try blowing them through (backwards) with an airline before you buy new ones, I have to do mine every now and then.

Phil -

 

I had this problem too.

 

my thread

 

I bought some new nozzles from Mike Feeney (check out the Traders section) for about 15 quid the pair (new).

 

They were fine for a while but soon blocked up again. The problem was finally sorted (not by me), by unblocking the nozzles with an airline, and *importantly*, flushing out the hose(s) and water container for the washer fluid. Apparently you can get a lot of build up crap in there, and it'll just get squirted back up there to block the new nozzles.

 

I probably never needed to change my nozzles in the first place. Never mind.

 

Hope this helps,

Russ.

il try that with the airline thanks all.

I agree with RUSSTIC,

clean out the 'bottle' , my Citroen BX 'bottle' had some weird crap in there , i think people put some kind of addative in there at some time and it 'goes off' leaving greasy bits floating around in the bottle. When you 'squirt' it blocks up your nozzles again ! Exept on a Citroen BX they dont have 'nozzles' (typical French!) they have a long plastic pipe with holes pricked in it that 'sits' on the wiper arm ! I keep getting those greasy deposits on my windscreen (Annoying!) because i cant get the f***ing bottle out to clean it out ! :mad: :mad: :mad:
