Recently, my windshield washers stopped working regularly. Sometimes they would work, but the driver side would spray weakly and the passenger side barely at all. I looked online and read that the cause could be due to clogged lines, so I was going to pull the lines out and have a look but I could not get the wiper arms removed, they were stuck on pretty good and I didn't want to do any damage by forcing them. Since I couldn't remove the whole plastic panel where the washer nozzles are mounted, I at least took a peak underneath and discovered that the fluid line is snapped off and no longer connected to the underside of the nozzle. I am hoping that replacing the nozzle will have the parts needed to fix/replace the broken fluid line, anyone have experience in replacing this part? Also, so that I can better assess the problem, is there a safe or recommended way I can remove the wiper arms without damaging anything so that I can also remove the panel and really see what I am looking at?
