I'm assuming it will be a warranty item, but just wondered if anyone else had come across the same problem?
Problem with headlight washer jets

My passenger side washer jet for the front headlight got itself stuck over the weekend, it appears to have broken from its mounting somehow.
Quite possibly frozen wash water and all will be well come warmer temps.
Not in the F type, I have 50% mix screenwash and still the jets freeze over. After a 100+ mile run on Weds. in -6 I noticed icicles of blue screenwash hanging from below the corners of the bumper where the mechanism hadn't driven the jets out to wash the headlights. Of course it all thaws and works after a spell of stationary heatsoak.

Definitely the weather.
Over on the "repmobile" forums, three separate people thinking the washer jet fuse had blown.
Plus headlamps washers getting stuck open.
Of course with a bit of thaw things have returned to normal including the one that had just water in the washer bottle.
I think the temps exceeded a lot of the pre-mixed stuff so people were caught out.
