My windshield washer is not working. I can hear the pump running (and yes, the reservoir is full!) but nothing comes out. It stopped working this fall so I know it's not just frozen. I think there is a clog in the line. Would love suggestions & hints for unclogging it. Should I be able to easily un- & re- attach the tubing? It's a Plymouth Breeze, if that matters. :-)

if anything take an air compressor and blow it out.. if not then just replace the tubing.

I suggest buying one of those cans of air with the little tube on them for cleaning electronics, etc. Maybe blowing some air through it might help. (after unhooking it from the little nozzle it comes out through) There is a possibility that trash got into the resorvoir and clogged it up where it goes into the line from there. Good luck!

yes the tubing is easy to detach. run cider vinager through the tubing.then use hot soap and water,then once again use the vinager.also look for colapsed hose.

It most likly is the nozzle end or spray end that is clogged, use a paper clip to clear the ends. If that doesn't work take it to a mechanic.

try pulling off the hose and see if there is an obstruction.
