After 3 windscreen pumps and headlight pump replacement , now Headlight  Nozzle jets are leaking!

Has any body carried out this task ?

I removed and cleaned the jet on the drivers side this week. I removed the drivers side wheel and loosen the plastic arch shield. Then loosen the bumper and removed the headlamp unit. The washer unit is held by three screws and then remove the pipe and the washer unit will come out through the hole in the bumper. I was expecting to have to replace it, but holding it in a bucket of water and extending it draws water into it like a syringe. Then hold your finger over the pipe connection and push the ram part back in to force the water through the nozzles. This worked for me. Hope it helps.
