    In my 55+ years of owning vehicles and driving I've never had a pump go bad. I've had hoses and connectors break (I keep my cars a lonnnng time) I've had nozzles get clogged or break off. Easy fixes.
    Keep making videos . . . Will help a lot of people.

    • @BudgetMechanicHawaii
      @BudgetMechanicHawaii  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Probably because you are conscientious about keeping your fluid topped up. Motors burn out a lot when people let fluid get too low and it sucks the junk and coagulated fluid in

    I fix my windshield washer by taking my vehicle to the car wash and spraying each nozzle with high pressure water. The results were an immediate success. Sure am glad that I did not have to take it to the dealer due to the hoses from the washer reservoir being under a cowling that would have to be removed. Saved me many bucks!

It was spraying weak and I couldn't find a small pin to stick in the tiny hole so like an idiot I tried sticking the tip of a scissor ✂ in it and now it doesn't spray at all. It just drips out onto the hood when I activate it lol. Guess I have to have it replaced now.
