Question Passenger side washer jet 'blocked'?

Any ideas how I get to the tubing that supplies the passenger side jet? I'm sure it's blocked (ish). Not obvious how to free up / disconnect to flush out.

Ta,
Zip

The trick I normally use (and have successfully on my S8) is to block the other jets with sewing pins (or safety pins) pushed in firmly then operate the washer to flush it through.

If U remove the covers behind the air box at the top seam of the drivers side fender you,ll find a T piece with a one way valve and sieve that gets blocked...
Give it a good clen and rather suck the gunk out of the one pipe....if necessary..... That sounds Gross.....
But I find it works better than blowing in the pipe.
