Windshield washer spray issue

This is a pretty minor thing but it bugs me nonetheless. I have a 2020 Sport and when washing the windshield, part of the spray pattern on the passenger side hits the cowling edge of the hood and runs down the hood. Toyota just replaced the nozzle but the issue persists. Any one else run into this and/or have a fix? The drivers side works perfectly. Thanks.

 

Those nozzles can rotate slightly in the assembly; maybe try to turn it slightly.

 

Put your thumb over the driver side nozzle and try to seal it shut, then hit the washers again. If its still doing it then there sounds like there might a blockage in the hose or t fittings.

You can also adjust the angle of them with a thumb tack. Put it into the sprayer hole and adjust it.

 

Thanks for the quick response @MeefZah - am I correct that the nozzle itself can rotate down a little? I guess I would use a pin etc to put a little bit of leverage via the nozzle hole itself.

 

Correct

 

Disconnect the line run some clean water threw it .

 

Misinformation is rampant.

 

Thanks @caribe makaira!

 

Did you ever figure it out? Mine is doing the same thing.

 

Got it figured out @tacoma1311. The issue ended up being that the hood itself was slightly warped during manufacture so a local body shop did their magic and all good now. Was covered under warranty. If you sit in the drivers seat and the corners of the hood are slightly depressed and not flush with the body, then you may have the same issue.

 

Thanks man, I believe that’s what I have as well. It’s flush but not 100%

 

No problem at all, @tacoma1311. Hope you can get yours resolved - it’s an annoying issue!

 

Thank you!
