Cadillac Repair: windshield washer system, fleetwood brougham, jet nozzle


Question
I have a 1990, 5.7 Liter, V8 Fleetwood Brougham Cadillac and the windshield washer doesn't work. I have replaced the pump and it has power but no water comes from the reservoir. I have been told that the problem is a bad washer fluid level sensor. What do you think? How can I find that part?

Answer
Can you hear the pump running ?. Follow the rubber hose from the washer jug to where it splits into the :T: where 2 hoses go to each jet nozzle at the windshield and see if it is pumping water.

Most likely the nozzles are clogged at the bottom of the windshield. Take a needle and poke open the nozzles.
