Well, I just bought 2 new OEM windshield nozzles to replace my old ones....they were working properly for 2 days....then, all of a sudden, only the passenger side sprays now...and the driver side nozzle doesn't have enough pressure or something....I checked out the lines and they were fine...does anyone else have this problem? any help would be appreciated... :smile:
Windshield Nozzle Problem....?

Sounds like you have trash in the tank or lines that is clogging nozzels.
Just had this very problem with my kid's Civic in the last few days - the jets were plugged up solid. I tried finding replacements at auto-parts stores & was surprised to find these difficult to come by (other than LED types!)
However, I managed to suck out the "goo" (yeeeuchhhh!!!!!!!!) from the originals but then I noticed the lines were full of black "stuff" so I went back to my local auto-parts store & bought some replacement tubing (which was readily available) and replaced all the sections all the way back to the reservoir/pump.
There's not much point in replacing the jets without doing something about the lines too. Pretty easy job & worth the extra $6 to replace the lines. Ended up working great, with a little additional alignment of the actual jets with a needle, so they sprayed correctly on the window.
