Blocked washer nozzles

My 2015 E89. Not sure if my E89 washer nozzles are blocked. Can I just use a pin to try to unlock?
Thank you.
 
You could try, but IME it's usually the pump filters blocked with algae. OE BMW screen-wash doesn't seem to mix with any other brand and then the filters get blocked by gunge.

I've had to remove the reservoir for a flush and the pump filters for a clean with a toothbrush on an E46 3 Series and an E86 Z4 which is an easy job as the reservoirs are under the bonnet.

Sadly I think the reservoir on the E89 is in the driver's side front wing behind the wheel-arch liner!
 
E89 washer reservoir is in an easily accessible place in front of front engine bulkhead on driver side next to brake cylinder reservoir :thumbsup:

Look in the reservoir bottom to see if there is a jelly like gunge in the bottom…for reasons stated..
