Window Washer Blocked..Why?

[seriams]

Hi,

All of a sudden my window washer is acting up. I'll press it one minute and its fine and the next nothing comes out. I'm going to destroy the motor at this rate. I moved from a hard water area two months ago and think it might be that that has blocked the water tube. Has anyone any suggestions on how I can free it up again?
Thanks in advance

is it maybe ice at this time of year? maybe water down the solution in the bottle with hot water?

Into the little eyelet bits that spray onto the window.

The motor may be on the way out.

Pull the water delivery tubes off the little eyes, just under the bonnet. Press the washer and see does the water gush out every time. If it does the problem is blocked eyes. If it dosnt the problem is either a blockage along the delivery tubes or the motor, but you will hear the motor every time if it is working.
