    WB Windscreen Washers Not Working..

    Hey guys, found yet another problem with the ute..

    The windscreen washers are not pumping any water out.. I have tested the pump and it is pumping water, but it is not keeping enough pressure in the system to squirt it out the nozzels that aim at the windscreen.. The nozzels are brand new, and are not blocked. So I have no idea on what is happen/what I need to do to get it working.. lol

    Any sugestions??
    Cheers,
    Matt

    stick some comressed air up the pipe to the nozzles, took me about 6-7 goes to get all the old rubbish out of the pipes, a pin or a piece of fuse wire is good to clear the nozzles if they block up.
    on the other hand the impellar could have come loose on the shaft, in that case buy a new pump about $15 any more than that you are getting ripped.

    Restricted inlet to the pump or blocked line/nozzles.

    There is a small round in-line filter before the first nozzle near the brake booster. It may be blocked or buggered as well.

    Cool, I will try that. The funny part is there is still some water being (slowly trickling..) out the end of the hose (that connects to the filter thingo..) I will clean out the nozzles just to make sure. And I might just get a new pump as well.
