Hi, my drivers side Headlight wash nozzle is slowly dribbling water and emptying my washer bottle.
What's wrong with it? There are some connector/valve things in line with the washer pipes, could one of them be faulty?

Thanks Mike.

Duff (or previously removed) non return valve in the washer line. Should be about 6" back along the pipe from the nozzle, IIRC.
