Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Windscreen washer woes

« on: 30 April 2012, 18:16:47 »

Hi All,
The drivers side washer is great on our Elite but there is nothing coming from the passenger side. I have poked a pin into the jets to check they are clear, no difference

There are no wet patches around the psaaenger underside of the bonnet so don't think it is a split pipe either.
The MOT is due so need to find a fix quickly.
Thanks
