    Hi folks,

    My passenger side windshield wiper nozzle seems to be entirely clogged. Whenever I run the wiper fluid release, all I get is liquid on the driver's side. It's not world-ending, but it is rather annoying.

    I've tried the pin method of pushing things around to see if it cleans anything out or unclogs it, but haven't had luck.

    So, I ordered a replacement, and am looking to install. However, I haven't had a ton of luck finding a guide or video that walks me through the process.

    Anyone have a link I can use to get it done myself?

    Thanks in advance!

    well the easiest is to first start with a sewing needle and stick it down the hole and wiggle it around, sometimes that clears it up and gets them working.
    if that does not work pinch the bottom with a pair of pliers after removing the feed hose. pinch the "fins" back against the body push it back though the hood, scrub around the hole with some alcohol and a towel install the reverse.

    my 2nd gen has I think like Honda odyssey nozzles in them, and they spray in a fan shape vs the 2 pointed ones
