Video tutorial

In this video tutorial, we can see how to clean clogged windscreen washer nozzles on the Nissan Qashqai. The first step is to lift the bonnet and secure it with the prop rod. Take a flathead screwdriver and pry off the plastic nozzle located near the wiper arm. Once removed, disconnect it from the attached tube without letting it fall.

After detaching it from the tube, wrap insulating tape around the tube to prevent it from dropping down. Do not use needles or other sharp objects inside the nozzle as this may damage it. Behind the nozzle, you will find a screw that adjusts the spray by raising or lowering the jet. Remove the other nozzle located near the other wiper.

Secure the tube with tape to prevent it from falling. Take the nozzles and use a descaler to clean them, or you can use white vinegar.

Place the two nozzles in a plastic container, add the cleaning solution, and leave them overnight in the liquid. Remove them in the morning and refit the nozzles onto the vehicle.
