Windscreen washers

Hello all

I am trying to unblock my windscreen washers.

I have taken the pump off and flushed the bottle out and it has improved it slightly.

I want to disconnect the jets to clean them.

I cant get access to them because the black plastic facsia ?, below the windscreen, is held down by the windscreen wipers.

I have removed the top nut, but they don't seem to want to budge.

Whats next?

What year is your car - my washers are on the bonnet.
If you have removed the windscreen wiper nuts you now need to gently prise the wiper arms off thier spindles.The spindles have a slight taper on them - i find gently wiggling them is enough to break free the taper.

05 and the wipers are not on the bonnet.
Part of the black plastic bit between the windscreen and the bonnet
Been soaking the spindle/thread with oil and they still won't budge.
Try again tommorow.
