Hello again,
Well my passenger side ph2 washer jet seems blocked. I took it off the pipe and steeped it in water and washing up liquid, and while it was off I tested the pipe and the water comes out freely enough; so it seems the problem is within the washer jet itself.
I know with the ph1 you could get a pin and fix it, but what can be the problem with this? The water kinda drips out. Oh and the drivers side works perfect.
Thanks
Jordan

Might be worth getting a new one, only a couple of quid.

Put an air line on the end of the tube leading to the blocked jet & blow it out.

If boiling water dun work, use boiling hot water with descale chemical that u normally use for kettle.
It should clear up the limescale that blocked the jet washer.
