Hi, I have some debris clogging my washer fluid lines. I know I can take it to the dealer but I just don't have time right now. Does anyone know if the nozzles just snap off and on? If so I can just flush the lines and not waste time going to the dealer for something so small. Thanks.

Right on. I'd try the needle trick first.

Oh I know the needle trick but its not that. It's clogged in the lines. I just wanted to pull the nozzles off if possible and disconnect the hose connected to it and run the pump. Maybe that will clear it.

if there is no water at all coming out then its likely to be a faulty pump, even if you can hear the pump buzzing its likely not pumping water, this is a common fault

It does pump water but very little. And It doesn't come out of the back nozzle for the rear window.

Thank you for the help. I think I'll just take it in. It's a tiny problem anyway so theres no rush. Almost 40k and this is the first issue. Not too shabby.
