| Front Windscreen Washers very weak |
|
Hello, this is my first post on this forum....... Please be kind... 
The front windscreen washers are very weak, the water stream only just hits the window. I've got to the washer bottle and checked it and the pump for any blockages but there are none. I have then removed the feed pipe at the pump and removed the pipe at the jets and tried the air line to see if its blocked. It appears that there is a restriction in this pipe, I suspect that there is a one way valve that could be playing up but not sure if this is the case or where it is.
Any ideas my friends

There is no valve for the front as far as I am aware.
Maybe a kink near the bonnet ?

The bits i can see all appear to be straight and OK. Could be hidden in the body work, so I might have to replace the complete pipe....

As it uses a separate motor, it may be the motor not doing its job

I wouldn't rule out clogging up with crud. Add some Milton sterilising fluid to the water tank and give it a day or two. .

Be careful with Milton my wife poured it neat down our shower and sink waste to clear a blockage. The shower waste melted.
The sink waste was ok as it was a different type of plastic
