Strange problem with Windshield Washer Nozzle
So i was trying to use my windshield water today, and the driver side nozzle has no water coming out of it when i pull on my handle. The passenger side works, but for some reason the driver side doesn't. I popped the hood to check it out, but its all blocked by that plastic cover thing. so i can't see what the problem is.
I opened the hood and then tried the windshield water so i could see, and there is just nothing coming out of the driver side nozzle. My water is full.

Have you waxed your car? Usually wax gets in there and it's hard to tell so when it dries up it clogs it. Or could be dirt too. Try using a pin or needle and see if you can carefully pry some gunk out of it then it should be fine.

yea but i checked and the tip of the nozzle is so thin, that i can't see anything? there is no way gunk can get in there, if you know what i man. the nozzle is probably like a millimeter thin. I'll try it anyway and then i'll post what i did.

Gunk is liquid dirt, water can seep into anything small. It goes into dirt with no issue so an area with an actual hole will be a cake walk for it to get into.

yea but what im saying is that the nozzle in my 04' tsx is like a vertical line. there is no whole on it. its a little verticle line thing. i can't find a place where i can stick a needle in to clean it.

Not sure what you're talking about, I'd have to see it as I haven't messed with these on the TSX. Look at your passenger side one and see where the liquid comes out from. Have someone press the button and you can check from the side to see where the water actually comes out of. Then you can use that to figure it out on the driver's side and hopefully find the hole to clean out.
