Default Screenwash jets.

The drivers side jet has stopped working.
Plenty of water coming out of the passenger side so the pump is fine.

I have taken it to bits and the problem is not the jets themselves but either the elbow going into the drivers side jet or the T piece from the passenger side jet.

Do these have one way valves in them as the flow through the elbow in the drivers side seems to be quite restricted?

Any answers or advice please guys.

they are relatively easy to remove and clean - that is what I had to do when somehow the angles were way out, took them out cleaned them, realigned them and put the back in - work perfectly now.

I posted somewhere here about it

Thanks for the reply. The drivers side was letting a dibble out before I attempted to fix it. Now it is bone dry. When it is light tomorrow I will try turning the elbow in the drivers side jet round and also try to see if I get any water out of the pipe if I completely disconnect the jet. It might be a problem with the T piece in the passenger side jet.

I only had two things replaced under warranty, the EGR and a set of heated washer jet things, they didn’t seem surprised when one stopped working exactly as you’ve described!
