Dismantling Windscreen Washer Nozzles

Model: Mercedes Clk A208, W208, C208 - Years 1997-2003
Part: Windshield wipers

If you habitually fill the windscreen washer reservoir only with water and not with the appropriate detergent, it may happen that limescale blocks the nozzles of the washers, necessitating their dismantling to treat them with descaler and clear the nozzles, possibly using a pin; therefore, open the front bonnet and lift it until the safety hinges click, remove the plastic cap near the left hinge (driver's side), and access the connector of the washer nozzle, disconnect the connector and the tube attached to the nozzle to complete the dismantling by pressing on the locking tab.
