Hi everyone hope you're well. Just wanted to ask if anyone has had a problem with the windscreen washer jets in a skoda fabia 02 reg. If anybody can help would be grateful thanks

Welcome mate

Welcome, washer jets do get blocked from time to time, in the past I have used compressed air or small pins to unblock them, not too sure what jets are fitted on Fabias, mine are different to any I have had on previous cars.

Thanks guys. I have tried the above however doesn't work for me. When I try to get washer fluid out by pulling the usual wiper handle nothing comes out but I hear the usual noise. From what I can tell the fluid is coming out from the bottom of the reservoir. Asked a friend who suggested pulling out the fine pipe under the bonnet and testing the wiper motor. Any ideas are greatly appreciated. Thanks

welcome to the dark-side matey :giggle: .

Have you checked if the rear wash wiper works ?

 

If this works then you definately have a blockage to the front.

From what I can tell the fluid is coming out from the bottom of the reservoir.

 

Could be the pipe has come off the motor, the motor is leaking or has become detatched from the reservoir, or your reservoir has a hole in it. You need to get in there and investigate :thumbup:

Welcome to the forum by the way :)
