Windsheild wiper sprayers.

OK so i been wondering to myself for the past year or so about my whiper fluid. I have a full fluid tank for it and every now and then i try to see if it will spray on my window. but i never get anyhting. i just get the whipers moving. i checked the hoses for anyhting that wouldnt make it go through. And ideas?

Re: Windsheild wiper sprayers.

Take the pump out and see if it outputs anything. More than likely it is a dead pump. If the pump is good, replace the tubing to the wipers. It could be clogged with dirt or other debris.
Good Luck!

You should be able to hear the pump working ... if it works.

Re: Windsheild wiper sprayers.

My suggestion, would be to take the lines off.
You should be able to blow thru them. If not, you need a new line. Also put your finger over the other end, if you can still blow thru it, you have a hole and need a new line.
If that's all good, then see if the pump works. If not, see if you have power to the pump.
If so the pump is bad.

They are what they call a wet arm system. The sprayers are in the wiper arms.
