Default Washer nozzle

Guys does anyone have a spare passenger side windscreen washer nozzle I could buy? One of the jets on mine is completely blocked solid and it's bugging me so need to get it replaced.

Maybe a stupid question but have you tried poking it with a needle?

remove it (carefully) and leave it to soak in boiling water. sorted mine out. just be careful taking them out and replacing them, that's when I broke the clips on mine. Mind you that's what araldite's made for

Won't work, it's blocked by being rusted.

On one of mine, which blocked, I tried the printer ink syringe treatment, but that didn't work, so I broke it open, removed all the bits, which is in effect a one way valve, ball bearing, spring and rubber washer I think, reassembled it expecting the water to run back to the bottle, but it didn't so sorted for free...

Hope it helps,

Best regards,

Rustic
