How to Spray Windshield Washer Fluid in a Corolla?
2 Answers
Immediately operate the wiper switch knob to spray the windshield washer fluid. After spraying out the old washer fluid, add a small amount of new washer fluid at the refill opening. Turn on the wiper switch again to completely remove any remaining old washer fluid. When the spray nozzles stop emitting fluid for the second time, pour in 4 liters of washer fluid, fill to the top, and then securely close the cap. The purpose of windshield washer fluid is to maintain the clarity of the windshield.
I remember when driving a Corolla, spraying windshield washer fluid was super easy. Just push the lever on the right side of the steering wheel forward—yes, a gentle push—and the fluid would spray out with a hissing sound, while the wipers would clean the windshield smoothly. If the spray wasn’t high enough or was misaligned, you could adjust the nozzles yourself by gently nudging them with a small stick to realign the direction. Adding washer fluid was also hassle-free—just pop the hood, find the small tank with the blue cap, and pour it in, but don’t overfill to avoid spills. In winter, remember to switch to antifreeze fluid; otherwise, it might freeze and fail to spray. If it doesn’t spray, check if there’s still fluid in the tank or if the nozzles are clogged with dirt—clean them yourself and try again. These steps work just as well in other cars. The key is to top it up regularly to ensure smooth operation, making it convenient and safe to use.
