My windshield washer spray stopped working after I ran out (yes, I refilled it).

Ok, update. It's been +10 C for two days, problem remains. Narrowed problem down to nozzles...

After removing the nozzles and cleaning them in the best way I could (soaking them in water, blowing through them, etc) I've improved the spray. I now have full spray on two of the nozzles, and no spray on the other two. It's enough that I can clean my window, but still not fixed. There must be some gunk inside the plastic nozzle pieces.

I suspect I'll have to buy two new ones, I don't know how to clean the inside of these things.

Shoot Spoolin//S6 (aka Brian W) an e-mail. I'm sure he could help you out.

Problem solved - A final update

After driving around for a month or more with the last nozzle still blocked (the one that sprays on the drivers side) I finally figured out how to unclog it. I "flossed" the nozzle hole with a piece of thin wire from a twist tie. Worked great and fixed the problem. :-)

And no, it never was frozen. :-P
