Passing along the part numbers for the parts:

Window Washer Nozzle, 1 per package, #17603, $11.28/each.

Hope this helps.

Take the closest section of hose off below the sprayer and take a air compressor and blow in it. I do this about 2 times a yr. It will be pissing in the cars behind you....lmao

I realize this is an old thread, but I'm bumping it anyway.

I changed my driver's side sprayer last month, but I did not clean out the tank nor did I change the seal in the reservoir as recommended. It worked great for 2 weeks.

Now my nozzle is clogged again, so I bought new nozzles (again) and I actually bought the seal this time. I plan to drain the reservoir and clean everything this time, before I swap out the nozzles.

Just thought I'd share my experience for anyone who is debating how to address the issue.

I was having this exact issue lately and have been putting off looking into it as I feared it was much more complex that it really was. My driver side jet is also plugged.

Easy fix.

Thanks

Since it's been recently resurrected, I'll add my $.02.

The nozzles can be cleaned if you really can't swing the $11.

Just remove and attach them to a hand vacuum pump with a reservoir in the line, put the nozzle in water and apply vacuum. The reverse flow should dislodge any debris clogging the nozzle and you can even see what it was since it's collected in the reservoir. My stock nozzles work almost like new.

Or you can just use a straw and a glass of water but I'm not responsible for washer fluid or any debris you may swallow.
