Washer nozzle broke off

[Daniel Brunner]

Hi guys, I installed the washer box, pump and hoses today. So far all good. After that I wanted to adjust the nozzles so the water comes to the windshield/ unfortunately the drivers side nozzle broke off by barley touching it and now it lays inside the vents…. Had some of you guys the same problem is it possible to glue or weld it? Hope I can get the broken part out through the nozzle fastening on top (Pictures down here)

Dang, you're out of town. It would be easy to start a parts wanted ad for one. I'm sure someone here has some but the shipping might be a lot.

Solder back together, just make it's in original position. Remove other piece from car before soldering.

Yeah, its a big problem living 5000miles away from the USA. We don’t have such tiny parts here and I‘ll pay 50$ just for shipping.

I never thought of soldering, thanks man maybe that will save me some money

If I remember they are copper or brass so it will sweat back together fine.
Just don't get any flux/acid in the tube or that solder will suck right inside.

The nozzle position is important, look at your other nozzle to see.

Once you get it back together, note that the little "paddle" that sits proud of the mounting flange is to adjust the tube position, not bending the tube.

That’s what my wife keeps telling me.
