Cleaning Washer Jets
WARNING: Do not operate the washer jets during cleaning. Windshield washer fluid may cause irritation to the eyes and skin. Always read and observe the washer fluid manufacturer’s instructions.
Washer jet nozzles are located at the base of the windshield.
If a washer jet nozzle becomes clogged with debris or build-up, its performance can be reduced. There are several methods for removing any blockage:
-
Dip a small, soft-bristled brush (such as an old toothbrush) in warm water and scrub in and around the nozzle to clear away any dirt or debris.
-
Use a can of compressed air to blow a concentrated stream of air into the clog to loosen it, and to blow away any debris from the nozzle.
-
For more serious clogs, slide a thin piece of wire into the nozzle to clear any blockages.
