No much power in screenwash

[Icsea]

I've had the undercover off on my bonnet and all the pipes are right and dry when I put water through them but my drivers side barely throws any water out, I've tried a needle in the slots and it didn't change it at all, don't know if this is common or maybe my pump is on the way out? TIA

Try removing the jet from the bonnet and put it in a cup of boiling water I did this years ago and was surprised at the amount of dirt that came out.

Filter in the reservoir could be choked up, jets bunged up or the pump is plain tired.

Not to sound like an idiot but how do I get the jet from the bonnet?

Use some, thin but strong plastic (like the clear stuff on packaged bolts/bulbs/kids toys).

 

Gently slide it under the front or back of the nozzle (under the black rubber seal bit) and lift that end of the nozzle then do the front similarly, or try both (and lifting) if being awkward.

 

If you detach the nozzle just be careful to ensure you don't lose the tube/hose down into the bonnet.

Carefully....Or you'll be respraying the bonnet
