Default Windshield Sprayer Nozzle Loose

Hello all,

The right-hand nozzle for the windshield wiper fluid has come loose. I have looked in both the Haynes and Chilton manuals and did not see anything about how to reattach these nozzles. How does one reattach the nozzle?

Thanks!

Patrick

The nozzles just clip into the hood. There are catches or edges on either end of the nozzle that fit into the hood opening. You may have some of the catch broken off of the nozzle.

Any ideas on what my problem is?

I filled it with water to test, but they wouldn't spray. A few hours later, the water was all gone. Also, when i pull the handle to make them spray, i hear a motor like its trying to make them spray, but nothing is happening (wipers are wiping just fine)...

Any idea on where to start here?

Look under the car or around the washer fluid reservoir for fluid after you pull on the stalk to spray with, you may have a cracked hose from the reservoir to the srayer line thats letting the fluid release out the bottom of the reservoir. It becomes brittle over time and fails. Otherwise the line is blocked somewhere before the first nozzle.
