Why is the car windshield washer fluid not spraying?
1 Answers
Failure to spray windshield washer fluid is often due to the fluid level being too low. Even if there is still water in the reservoir, if it doesn't reach the standard height, the fluid won't spray. Here are several reasons why the windshield washer fluid may not spray: 1. The washer fluid is full but still won't spray—this could be because the spray nozzle is clogged with dust. Simply use a fine needle to unclog the nozzle. 2. In winter, the reservoir or tubing may be frozen. After warming up the car sufficiently, park it in the sun to thaw. If it sprays afterward, consider switching to a higher-grade antifreeze washer fluid. 3. When trying to spray the fluid, if there's no sound from the motor and the wipers don't work, it might be due to a blown fuse or a damaged motor. 4. If none of the above reasons apply and the washer fluid still won't spray, take the car to a professional repair shop for inspection.
