Windshield Washer Help
Hey guys,
So my windshield washer does not spray. You can hear the motor running and the wipers wipe like they would if it were spraying, but it won't spray out of either hole. Would anyone have any advice for me? Or does the 3is have issues with the washer that I should check? I'm out of warranty and it is a 2014 is250 base. Thanks for your help!

Ha! Depends on how often you use it too. I've had instances when it takes a couple seconds for the washer fluid to come out if it's been a couple months. Maybe something blocking the spray nozzle too?

Do you have regular wiper fluid in the reservoir or just water? If it's just water you could have some built up deposits at the end of the nozzle. How do they look? Make sure they aren't crusted over. Maybe take a toothbrush and try cleaning the spray nozzles. Hope this helps.

sorry to bring up an Old Thread but i am having the same kind of problem except mine only happens when its COLD? i checked briefly for any kinks or knots in the line under the Hood but seems like it runs behind the Driver Side Front Fender
mines is not Fluid, its full, i tried to wipe of the 2 nozzles on the Hood but both are clear of any impediments
any ideas what could be causing this??

If its just water, it could be frozen in the lines...

Depending on the rating of the washer fluid (-10 vs -40), it may still be frozen.
I've had summer washer fluid freeze in the winter...simply because it wasn't rated for that low of a temp...basically it's alcohol content wasn't enough.
