I have a question for you: did the thing just quit working one day? Does it work intermittently?
Reason I ask is that last winter one or both of my front washers would spit out intermittently. I figured easy fix.....not so fast !
No observable clogs etc etc. After 2 hrs total work in about 3 sessions I had an idea. I pulled the nozzles off the hood. I used my air compressor with the air blow nozzle attached, and blew backwards thru the things - ball bearing loaded. Hooked back up and they worked for a few shots, then problems again. I summized that the bearings were getting stuck, so I blew some light machine oil thru with the air compressor air nozzle tool, and voila, permanent fix. Not another prob in 13 months.
Very unusual problem, but perhaps yours is of the same derivation.
Hope it helps.
