Why is the windshield wiper not spraying water?
1 Answers
The reasons why the windshield wiper does not spray water are as follows: Common causes for the windshield wiper not spraying water include clogged nozzles or hoses; malfunction of the motor, water pump, fuse, or wiring; or running out of windshield washer fluid. If the issue is clogged nozzles or hoses, you can try unclogging them yourself. If you've run out of windshield washer fluid, simply refill it. For other causes, it's best to visit a 4S shop for inspection and repair. Additional Information: If the problem lies with the spray motor itself, first check if the filter screen is clogged. A clogged filter screen can still be repaired—for example, by disconnecting the hose at the spray nozzle end, opening the windshield washer fluid filler port, and using an air gun to blow through the hose. This will force the water in the windshield washer reservoir out through the filler port, along with any debris stuck on the filter screen. For other issues, it's advisable to seek professional help at a 4S shop.
