Windshield Sprayer Nozzle

[navygz19]

Anyone know how to remove these? The drivers side doesn't even spray anymore...anybody know what it looks like on the inside? I'm assuming there's a ball bearing inside of it, and my thinking is that mine's clogged in there, because when I spray the windshield, water doesn't come out of the holes, but instead sort of seeps out of the bottom. The spray holes themselves have been cleaned numerous times. Do you just stick a flathead in between the hood and the sprayer bottom? Thanks

Remove all the tubing and take plyers and GENTLY pull on the sprayers. Should work.

Yeah I managed to pop them off, though the clips underneath are pretty much toast now. Still can't get the drivers side un-clogged, I'm just going to buy some new ones and call it a day. These things are a pretty universal part, right? I mean, the local Advance should stock some?

I've always been able to unclog them by removing them (by squeezing their plastic tabs from the under-hood side), then inserting a needle (or safety pin) into the nozzle. I also use the safety pin/needle to aim them.
