Blocked Washer Jet

[dobbers]

Hi Folks,

I have a 2001 2.4 CDX Previa and the washer jets seem a bit blocked up when squirting onto the windscreen. Is there an easy way to get to them to clean them? I had a quick look under the bonnet and it seems that I would need to take off the plastic surrounding the washer jets to get at them to clean them.

Any ideas or diagrams on how to get this job done?

regards,

dave

Easiest way is to get a sewing needle and push it down the hole . It'll dislodge any gunk in there so you can flush it out with a good squirt.

another way if that dosnt work is get a can of air duster (basicaly compressed air) pull the pipe carefuly off the offending jet, give a little poke with the needle and a good shot with the air duster from the outside so you reverse flow it, usualy blows the dirt out
