    Good Day,

    I have a 2010 Cascadia, DD15, that has an issue with the windshield wiper spray nozzles. The driver side works poorly, hardly no pressure and the passenger side dispenses no windshield fluid at all.

    I have disconnected the hoses on the nozzle side, blown through the hoses and have noted no obstruction and have also done the same to the nozzles and have blown through them as well - no obstruction.

    What is my next step? Thanks to the forum.

    Weak pump or check the lines.
    If the line has a hole,it will take most of the fluid there.
    Take a safety pin to the nozzles.
    They build up with deposits.
    Or the lines are partially froze up if it's cold enough.

    Lines kink in the wiper arm.

    I will check the lines in the wiper arm and recheck the nozzles. If the problem lies with the pump - is there something that can be done aside from R&R for a new one?

    thanks for your replies / help.
