Bonjour à tous.
J'ai maintenant 14500 km avec mon Grenadier Trialmaster Diesel.
J'ai constaté que les lave-glace ne fonctionnaient plus correctement. La lave glace gauche (conducteur) ne dépasse plus le quart du pare brise. Le lave glace droit (passager) ne fonctionne plus du tout.

En déposant le buse de lave glace j'ai constaté la présence de deux fils électriques.

Savez vous comment fonctionne ce lave galce ? Avez-vous eu ce genre de problèmes et comment l'avez-vous résolu ?
Merci d'avance.

I had same UK passenger side, one day decided to just dribble over lower part of screen. Squeezed and wiggled the jet a few times and it restored itself.

wires are needed to prevent frozen washers.
It is preferable to use some antifreeze (alcohol) in the windscreen washer fluid. This prevents the fluid from freezing on the windscreen.

Il est préférable d'utiliser de l'antigel (alcool) pour le liquide lave-glace. Cela évite que le liquide ne gèle sur le pare-brise.

I had the same problem some 8 months ago. I know they replaced them, but they didn't know why it happened.

Les deux File dans votre buse de lave glace font partie du circuit de chauffage pour les buse. Si vous souhaitez démonte le system I’ll va failure démonte le couver de plastic sous les essuie glace.

2- Enlève les trois couvert carré

3- enlève les 3 noix 10mm sous les couvert

4- Ouvre le capot

5- Il y a 3 boulons 10mm aux devant du couvert de plastic, enlève les 3 boulon

6- sur le côté conducteur et passage vers l’arrière des aille il y a un noix en plastique, enlève les deux noix.

7- Lentement enlevé le couver de plastic, les file de buse et les tuyaux des buse sont attaché sur le couver. Les connection de file se retrouve sur les côté.

The Wiper Nozzles are clipped in to the plastic cover, but can not be removed due to wiring.

To remove the nozzles you have to remove the cover.

1- Remove Wiper arms. Remove plastic covers, remove 13mm nuts that retain arms, gently wiggle. Arms will come off

2- Remove 3 Square Covers, use small flat screwdriver, or preferably plastic trim tool

3- Remove 3 10mm nuts under covers

4- Open Hood

5- Along the front of the cover is 3 10mm bolts. Remove bolts

6- On both sides Driver and Passenger at the back corner of the front fenders edges of plastic cover are a 10mm plastic nut. One on each side. Remove both nuts.

7- Gently wiggle the plastic cowl cover, and lift. The nozzles wiring and tubes are all clipped in to the back side. You can now disconnect the wiring and remove the nozzels

There is no adjustment. And if your nozzle is squirting too low you’ll need a replacement.

I switched them left to right, so for now at least my drivers side gets clean. I think I have a new plan for these, but I’ll wait to see what the dealer does.

Mines booked on with dealer to get this replaced along with other small issues that want sorting. Apparently no adjustment with those washers which is not ideal.

No, not ideal at all. I don’t know why we keep re inventing things that have worked for a half century or more. Adjustable ball nozzles are excellent. But you know someone always thinks they can make it better.
