my windshilked squirteers stopped working out of nowwhere. i have not a clue why. i checked the fuse for the wipers, its ok, everything works except the squirters. any ideas??

 

Check your lines, and also if there's fluid in the reservoir. Do you hear a noise when you attempt to get fluid to squirt out?

 

maybe you need to get those LED squirters

really though....check the actual ports themselves.. and makes sure they are not pluged.. and check your fluid level...
put some distilled water in it and run the squiter motor.. make sure the motor is working

The squirter jets themselves can clog over time.
If so, pull them off and soak in hot water/simple green solution for a while...

 

mine have never worked, and there isnt a sound when i hit the switch

 

Dude I think all you need to do it upgrade!!!!

If you don't hear any noise coming from the motor that runs the squirters, then you more than likely need to replace it.

 

Yeah to LED nozzles

 

There is a quick and easy way to tell if they are clogged. Take a sewing neetle and poke it into the outlet. If they work after that then take them off and soak them, no point in soaking them if there not clogged.

 

the 5-10 lbs of the motor, lines, and filled water tank now sit comfortably in my attic

 

*points* HAAA HAAA the censor's off

 

Don't worry, mine quite on me too.

I know the lines look terrible so I think I'll replace them while I'm at it. I just have to crack open the Helms to figure out how to reach the motor(s).

 

its basically where your resonator would be, if your resonator was on the driver side.

 

Get a thin metal wire (not an electircal wire with a rubber sleeve) and stick that in the hole on the washer nozzle jets, this should do the trick to unclog them (that's what we do at work). Later!
