Wiper Fluid S70 98

posted by  someone claiming to be Tim Carrier on  Mon Nov 13 08:50 CST 2000 [RELATED]

It's been cold as a witch's teet here in Colorado for the past four days or so. Corresponding with the cold snap, my wiper fluid jets ceased working. This caused great issues as I travelled back from skiing yesterday, and had to pull over to pour wiper fluid on the windshield.

Anyway, to my question, is the wiper fluid system heated in anyway? If so, why did I have this problem? My only answer is that the cheap asses at the local dealership (just bought the car two weeks ago) filled the reservoir with water and it froze.

Oh yeah, the temp shot all the way up to 39F today, and the jets are working like a charm. Thus, this problem does appear to be temperature related.

Thoughts?

Cheers,

Tim
