    Washer jet nozel clogged... how to fix?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So 3 of my washer jet nozzles are clogged. Used fluid rated to -20F and it hasn't even been in single digits. Tried to take a thumb tack to them, clean them off with isopropyl alcohol, rubbed them with brush, but no avail. We also had temps above freezing today (50F) and they still don't work. Has this happened to anyone on here?

    A pin or sewing needle should do the trick, you could try a thumb tack or something with a better grip. Dealerships have a special tool to aim and adjust them that can also unclog them, if you can't get it yourself.

    yeah, it was rain-x winter formula. Thumb tack is just a tad too big. I'll see if there is any way to get a stiff but narrow object in there to angle and unclog them.

    Everything i've read said rainx will eff it up. There are a couple threads on this issue. I would drain it and put the cheap shit in.
