Hey, i just got a 2002 EP3 and am having a but of frustration with the sprayer on the hatch window. When i got the car, It had no cap on the sprayer for the washer fluid so i basically just shot out water at the cars behind me. (actually, i considered keeping it this way because its awesome seeing the looks on peoples faces when i squirted them when they rode up on my tail) So, i got an OEM cap for it in today, went on ,fit perfectly, and looked a lot better then having the exposed hardware. I went to get that first rear window wash and found that the washer fluid just leaks out the bottom of the cap, it doesn't get on the window at all. I also changed the rusty nut that was on there with an OEM Honda nut just for that extra touch (.60 cents isn't going to kill you for an OEM price) and was wondering if i threw off the sprayer by doing this or if there is another problem with it.

Any info is appreciated. If it keeps up i see no point in keeping the wiper and will probably just block it off

Thanks,
Nate

 

lmao haha damn i wish i did this before i took mine off. i have my whole wiper motor and everthing sitting here but if im not mistaking i though the nozzle was bolted on to the motor and had a black car on the outside. just do a wiper delete. its looks super clean and just spray rain x on the window walllaaa and a plug and its all good and dandy

 

bump, anyone got info?

 

i got the same problem... its basically a little needle that stick out that points upwards and makes the fluid spray to your window... it probably broke off and that is its just leaking out... i have the same thing just haven't had a chance to fix it yet!

 

i got a rear wiper for ep3 i sell you real cheap it just been sitting here in my room for months. let me know

 

Yeah, mine just sprays randomly skyward. Is there an adjustment possible so that it gets anywhere near my window?

 

i will check tommorw to see if its adjustble. its late right now lol im not getting out of bed to go check ha

 

I'm going to tell you the same thing I told my girlfriend...


SHAVE IT!!!!!!!!

 

What do you do with the hole? (get your mind out of the gutter)

 

You can buy an OEM window plug from Honda for about $23 (came on the old CRXs). Looks VERY clean!!

 

so I'll have a big dot where my wiper arm used to be? How is that clean?

 

This makes me laugh. I deliberately bent the nozzle on my rear window sprayer up so I could spray tailgaters.

Stopped, it lands 15' behind the car. Moving at freeway speeds, it blankets the whole front end of the car following me.

One of these days, brake fluid might find its way into the washer reservoir. Tailgaters (especially those that can't brake in time driving their "my ***** is too small" SUVs) need to die in a fire.

 

lol i paid 3 bucks for my plug from honda. i just used the firewall plug i think. and trust me rashondasdriver it looks way super clean. its not a big dot its realy not even notcible like the wiper was. my friends in there em1 and eg hatch keep telling me it looks like im wiping my *** driving down the road it looks ugly so i removed it. heres something that could help you its a DIY heres the link

Ya but having a clear view is so much better then not being able to see! Function over form, Honda put it there for a purpose and it was because it gets dirty fast so you have the wiper to clean it up nice!

 

theres nothing a little rain x cant do and and wing aka duckbill whatever you guys call them now and days lol
