Windshield washer

[MGRMLN]

It's raining this morning and when trying the windshield washer, instead of the beautiful lines of fluid the wipers are supposed to deploy, I get a short burst but nothing more.
I kept trying but the pump operates but only long enough to squirt out a small bit.
Any ideas what to do or is it "call service" (again)?

Are you sure your reservoir of cleaning fluid isn’t empty?

I've had the same issue. Seemed to always work when service looks at it. It eventually starts working again.

I always find the first push of the washer gives me the lines across the screen. Subsequent sprays just push enough water out of the wipers to clean the screen without the lines. I always thought that was normal and haven't had a problem cleaning the windshield.

Hmm. Is that normal behavior? And yes, I have plenty of fluid in there!

Part of the problem I realized after I took apart the part that housed the piping for the windshield is the T. One pipe end is a short run a the other is a long run. Thus inconsistent pressurized stream There needs to be a Y diverter not a T.
