Default washer fluid sprayer not spraying

Hello everyone, as the title says, my vette isnt spraying an even amount of washer fluid anymore. It is full and some come out, non on the passenger side, they arent clogged and appear fine, could it be a pump somewhere? or does the nozzle breakdown? thank you in advance for your help

Pull your wiper arms off and remove the plenum in front of the windshield (3 or 4 push pins). Check all your hoses and their connections. Most of them are on the underside of the plenum.

Tip: Turn your wipers on and let the blades get to mid-sweep on the windshield and then turn the key off. Mark their location with some masking tape before removing them. Makes it real easy to re-install in the correct location.

BTW, the hose coming from the washer pump goes up under the plenum on the very far left side and then "Y"'s. One leg of the "Y" goes to the pass side and the other leg feeds the driver's side.
