    Hi,

    Is it possible to get inside the hatch itself to repair a leaking screen
    wash pipe ??
    I took the nozzle off as no screenwash was getting to it, thinking the
    nozzle was blocked, but the liquid still spews inside the hatch.

    Check the pipe hasn't split in the rubber near the hinge.

    Find a short length of tube (a lolly stick may do) cut the washer tube where
    it's split and insert the tube into both ends and heat shrink over it.

    Hope this helps
