How to Solve the Problem of Windshield Washer Not Spraying Water?
1 Answers
Solutions for windshield washer not spraying water: 1. If only one side of the washer has a problem: (1) Use a sewing needle, pin, or very thin steel wire to poke. (2) First spray out the remaining windshield washer fluid, then use an air gun to blow into the clogged nozzle. 2. If both sides have spraying issues, it might be due to low washer fluid, hose, filter, or motor problems. Follow these steps: (1) Check if the washer fluid is low and refill it before trying again. (2) Inspect the hose for damage or loose connections. (3) Check the motor and its wiring. Have someone operate the spray button inside the car while another person opens the engine compartment to listen for any sound from the washer motor. If the sound is very weak, the motor might be faulty. If there's no sound and the wiring is fine, it's likely a motor failure. (4) If the issue is with the washer motor itself, first check if the filter is clogged. A clogged filter can be repaired, such as by removing the hose from the nozzle side, opening the washer fluid filler port, and using an air gun to blow through the hose. The water in the washer tank will be blown out through the filler port, and any dirt on the filter will also be expelled. For other issues, it's best to consult professionals at a 4S shop.
