ok I searched but I have a slightly different question.

Just started yesterday morning on a freezing cold day.

I pump the washer fluid and it starts pumping out from around the drivers side nozzle if anything comes out of the nozzle itself it’s a few quick low pressure squirts like a bad porn star.

Now last night on the drive home it worked a little bit but not much...

I haven’t opened the hood yet since ive been busy at work ...

So what should I be looking for.. as in simplest steps first..


Thanks..

Silly question, do you have a full strength winter solution in your washer? With the brutal cold we have been having in the midwest, anything less than full strength may be freezing up on you.

yup full strength... but now im thinking of something else.. last month while plugging a hole in the tank.. i was testing with water.. there may have been a little bit of water mixed i wonder if thats all it takes...
