take the tubes off and blow through them.
ur washer jets are clogged with shit then, just buy a set of the max power ones for £10 and just dont wire up the neons

I'd put money on the washer pump filter blocked - remove washer pump and pull filter (black rubber jonny!) out of washer bottle - clean and refit all.
Takes about 2 mins !!!!

Theres crap in the tube thats gettin stuck behind the jets. can u unplug the hose from the back of the jets? if u can, disconnect the hose from there and at the washer pump, them give it a blow out.
