    Thank you. My fluid was non-antifreeze and while visiting KY the temp dropped to -5. The leak was obvious - a hose connection I snapped back in place with no problem. Then it still wasn’t flowing. The second leak was another pull-apart connection. This leak was the line running under the hood insulation which was easy to remove using a rivet puller. The line had pulled apart when it runs into the spray nozzles.

    Just started diagnosing the washer issue on our 2007 ford explorer; Original problem; wife said no washer fluid. The problem is some kind of slimy gooey in the tank mess that won't let the pump work. Will finish fixing tomorrow. Earlier in the day after it sat for a while it had good pressure then went to weak stream.

    Thanks for the video. Helped me with solving the low spray flow issue with my 2012 Mazda CX-5. Checked everything else before finally finding a messed up check valve. I drilled it out and all is well. I think the purpose of the check valve is to keep the line from draining back to the reservoir after use. Not critical but it is a nice feature. I ordered new check valve on Amazon and will replace. Thanks again for your efforts in making useful videos.

    A coworker had a works van that kept dumping the washer fluid, when I mentioned why they didn't top it off, as I occasionally had to use it( she was day work,I was night).She got snotty and said she did every day! I had a quick look, a feed pipe had become loose, the place I worked at was a motor trade based operation, a zip / cable tie from the stores fixed it in seconds.

    I have a Fit since new and had an issue with the washer fluid from day one. The dealer tried it and said it works as per normal. They do not listen to customers. I explained that the pressure is weak when driving over 60 kmh (40 mph) any time, and also is weak when it is cold outside. Washer fluid is rated for -40 C, so it is not an issue of freezing. I checked the pump and lines; all are good and clear. Any idea as the cause?

It's like that whole area has some kind of rubber plug right over it that I can't seem to move. Water does come out but it's not really going where I want it to go or it just seems to piddle out and flood around the nozzle area. Toyota Wish

    2017 hyundai, 23,000 miles. Ran out of washer fluid. Filled container, nothing coming out. Mechanic said the nozzle on Pass. side was bad. Replaced it with nozzle from dealer. $180.00 bill. Picked up car, spray on driver side was weak then stopped working altogether. So Pass. side and back wiper and spray work. Took car back to mechanic they said everything worked right when done. Left car again to find out why. Received call it could be fixed for another $70.00. No explanation why even the low pressure stopped working. Told mechanic no, I was picking up my car. My keys were waiting for me on their counter.

Any tips on how to not only clear them (I've used a single bristle from a handheld wire brush), and to get 'em aligned (they pivot on a ball)? That alignment has me pulling my hair out. I try to make a tiny adjustment and it goes too far, then back, and forth,etc. etc. etc. P.S. What's your take on youtube no longer sending emails when a video is posted???

I swear Ford under engineers the washer pumps in their vehicles, lol. My 2003 F150 has really weak flow, I'm about to just build my own setup so I can get enough pressure to the windshield for winter driving.
