Default Windshield Washer problem - weak stream
My washer fluid stream is so weak that it barely makes it over the wiper blades ( about 3" up onto the windshield). Both sides are like that. rearwiper and headlight sprayers work perfectly. tank is full of fluid. Any ideas, maybe a check valve or something?

I know I can go to dealer under warranty, but it isn't worth the hassle if I can fix myself.

thanks

Brian

Cracked, loose or broken tube?

Not that I see anywhere and I see no signs of fluid loss.

Default if it's not the hose then there's a foreign object in the nozzle
not sure how easy it is to get it out of there. might be dust, dirt, or sand. if u got a pin that'll fit the hole, you can try poking at it.
