Hello,

I have one windshield wash nozzle on my 2001 Accord that does not spray correctly onto the windshield (the other one works fine). I believe I can find the part(s) I need online to do the replacement, but are there any online resources or advice that can be given on how to do this swap-out of parts?

Thanks.

It unclips from under the hood. However, try cleaning it with a straight pin. There is most likely dirt in it.

Thanks! That was a good suggestion. Using the pin helped some, but what I ended up doing was removing the nozzle from the tubing, running some water through it and reassembled it back. It works like new now. Thanks again for the helpful hints.

Glad to help and that you got it fixed. In the future, if it happens again and you can't get it to work, I have actually boiled them in water to break down the build up in them.

Regardless, thanks for using 2carpros. Com, and let us know if you have questions in the future.
