The fluidic front washer nozzles (2) are constructed of molded plastic and include an integral check valve. Each nozzle has two integral latches (4) that secure them in dedicated holes in the hood panel near the base of the windshield. The domed upper surface of the washer nozzle is visible on the outside of the hood panel, and the dual nozzle orifices (1) are oriented towards the windshield glass.

An integral diaphragm type check valve is contained within the body of each nozzle. A rubber seal (3) seals the nozzle to the outer surface of the hood panel. The washer plumbing fitting (5) for the washer nozzle extends below the hood panel and is accessible from the engine compartment.

The front washer nozzles cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if ineffective or damaged, they must be replaced.
