Washer Jets
 
Another thing thats on my list is the washer jets dont seem to work, Ive checked fuses and nozzles took the pump and bottle off to see if there is a filter that blocks like the ZT but no gave the bottle and pump a clean of any gunk. Cleaned the connectors of the pump. You hear the pump making its noise but nothing else. I checked the hose to see if it was trapped anywhere but seems fine. Are the pumps known for failing?? At the moment im pouring water of the screen as I drive :laugh:

take the hose off, and depending on what youve got, blow down the hose towards the screen, then back towards the bottle too, or if you have a compressor bow down it with this, if its making its noise then its probably a block in the hose or jet itself, try tak the hose of the jet n see if water is coming through

No water by the jets will get a compressor on it if I take the car home,

what about if you take the hose off at the pump water spirting out there?, get a compressor and blow through from the pump end up, if u do it the other way round theres a chance you could end up getting wet, not like anyones ever done that to an astra before though....

yer water comes through the pump. Must be a blocked hose
