HELP! Windshield sprayer

SurfDog

I'm chugging through winter with no windshield sprayer

I don't know if it is related, but I had a shop pull my bumper and wheel wells to install an oil cooler.

Could it be that when they put the bumper back on they pinched my fluid line????

I suspect that is it, but before I pull my bumper to troubleshoot, I thought I'd ask if any of you really experienced Z mechanics could confirm or deny the possibility that my bumper could be the culprit.

Please help! reps and much love to anybody who can give me good troubleshooting advice!!!!

-Thanks

I've puled mine of plenty of times and theres no way for them to have done anything for it to stop working.

1. I would check to make sure there's washer fluid for one

2. I would try to remove one of the hoses leading to the squirt nozzles to make sure the washer motor is working

If you do get water to shoot when you hit the washers? The squirt nozzles need to be cleared.

well, the water lines and the wiring are behind the bumper. They could have disconnected something.

1. lol
2. good idea thanks

How how do I clear nozzles?

Thanks for the ideas. weird thing is they work when warm, but not when really really cold. next time they freeze up I'll disconnect and check nozzles. maybe my nozzles just froze over!

Ahh, so they do work?

It could be the washer fluid freezing then, so Im guessing someone topped it off with water and diluted it then :shrug:

If you have a CAI that relocates the reservoir and a larger oil cooler mounted on that same side that the new reservoir goes, then it won't fit. But I see you have pop chargers so nvm My AEM's new reservoir wouldn't fit with my oil cooler.

You can buy/add rainX concentrate from Walmart for like $4-6
I believe that has antifreeze properties too
