Hi, my '03 Patrol wash jets on the bonnet seem to have lost pressure/power. The right hand jet on both does not function at at all, and both remaining left hand nozzles have a weak output. This of course worsens when in forward motion. Does anyone have any idea what the problem might be, and how it might be fixed?

You've got gremlins in the works mate. Flush out and stick a pin down the jets. Then fit a cheap fuel filter in line before the bonnet jets. Did that on mine and not had a blockage since :thumbs

On mine it was the washer motor it was worn out.

some food for thought there, thanks for the replies. I am going to try the trial and error method, starting with "flush it and buy a cheap inline filter', if that doesnt work, I will blast it with an airline, and if that fails..... I will have to pay a man.... :nenau
