How to adjust windshield sprinkler in accord 2004
When I try to wash the windshield in my accord coupe I see
the stream of water hits the wiper blade, not the glass. Nowhere in the user manual I can find the procedure... It this the same as with other, older cars, that you can put some paper clip end to the sprinkler hole and move it? I would not like to break it if this is done some other way... |

I would use either a straight pin or an unbent safety pin, not a paper clip. The pins are tapered and will only go in so far. Paper clip may not even fit. Just insert the pin and move the nozzle around. Dan D '07 Ody EX Central NJ USA |

My 2001 Civic has a nozzle that looks like a horizontal slot, kind of like it fits a slotted screwdriver. I think I actually adjusted it with my fingernail. |

According to Honda's official documentation: " To adjust the nozzle, use a small, flat-tip screwdriver to push on the deflector and move the ball. Never stick a needle or any such object in the nozzle. Adjust the nozzle so the center of the spray hits the middle of the windshield." -- Tegger The Unofficial Honda/Acura FAQ www.tegger.com/hondafaq/ |
