Hi all,
Sunny day, encouraged me to wash car and I "clipped" one of the windscreen washer jets which promptly snapped leaving half of the jet below the bonnet. :-( The jet shows signs of having been glued in the past and is comprehensively buggered. The Haynes manual is once again of NO use, indistinct vague photos..but does show electrical connections. I assume heated jets to avoid freezing....read expensive.
Does anyone know parts no for the complete washer jet assembly and possible price, or should I start looking in scrapyards. Is the jet assy on the 202 series the same as the 190.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

Shude, thanks for the info, especially the diagram. It is useful to see that jets are "handed". Will check later to see if the jets are the heated or unheated type. Have put inchcape into my bookmarks.

I broke my own jet, super-glued it back together but it didn’t last, replaced with new, cant remember how much it cost but it wasn’t too expensive because I didn’t visit the scrap yard.

There is a tiny coil inside the jet, which must be for heating the jet and two wires coming from the jet. There is a cover inside the bonnet to gain access to the jet for removal. Heat the tubing with hot water to make it soft, then pull the tubing off the old jet,

Don’t know about the 202 verses the 190.

All w202 washer jets are heated AFAIK but unless your car was delivered to a country like Sweden you'd not likely have the "heavy duty" heated jets, just the normal ones.
