Windshield Washer

Ron & Dee · 05-17-2011, 09:24 AM

Weak stream from windshield washer.

I removed the tank and cleaned the little strainer at the bottom. Pump seems to be ok, but the stream at the wipers is very weak.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Ron

I started having that same weak stream problem when I hit 60.

Sorry, I couldn't pass that one up. Joe

Check the orfice at the wiper. Possibly some crud got thru the filter and clogged it

Well said Joe,
I wonder where the prostate gland is on that model, probably enlarged

I should have chosen my wording a little better.

My washer fluid generated a gooey mass last year. I cleaned it out and blew out the hoses and everything was ok.

After and exhausting trial and error, I finally solved my weak stream

I tried blowing the hose out, that didn't work.

I tried a new pump, that didn't work.

I tried replacing the hose, that didn't work.

Finally after doing a little Google work, I solved the problem with a couple of new nozzles

I got to the thread too late but on our new-to-us Adventurer I had the same problem on one of the washers. Yep, it turned out that one of the nozzles was actually broken and slightly lose from its base. After a little Super Glue it works like new. Sometimes it's the simple things that make all the difference.

By the way, I can't remember how many times I've fixed everything but the problem!!!
