replacing VE wiper spray nozzles

[grahame]

Hi all, can you help with either cleaning the sprayer jet or replacing them on my VE Commodore?
Thanks Grahame

Fine wire?

They unclip from the wiper arm. I haven’t found any before. Got some wipers from a wrecker to figure it out and maybe get working on the VZ. Destroyed them trying to unclip them.

Use a needle to unblock them. A bit of apple cider vinegar dabbed into them if that doesn’t work, then try the needle again.

If you are getting calcification occurring, start using demineralised water to fill the wiper reservoir instead of tap water.

I use these starting with the smallest.

This method works a treat if you’ve got access to an air compressor.

Pull the rubber tubing off the end of the washer jet before using the air gun attachment to blow air from the front of the washer jet to the rear

Plug the rubber hose back in and jobs done! With this method, you’re not boring the washer jet

Thanks to all that helped me, it turned out the motor was getting lazy and had it replaced, all working fine now, again thanks

It could still pay to blow compressed air through the lines and nozzles as in previous post. If there were any restrictions in the lines or nozzles, it could be a reason why your previous motor was struggling.
