The ODOR in my vette smells like.....

[Rain]

When we picked up our vette, the wiper fluid had a moldy smell to it when you would clean the windshield.

SO, I ran all of that water out of the system and replaced it with pure wiper fluid from the auto zone.

Odor didnt go away.

Can I run a mixture of bleach and water thru those lines to see if its mildew in the system?

Any damage? Any experiences?

Thanks

Unless you are 100% sure the smell is coming from your washers I would suspect the a/c evap case,it may have a buildup of mold in it causing the smell. A common problem. There are shops that will do an evap blast/mold/fungus sweep to kill the bacteria that causes the odor. We do it all the time at the dealership I work for. Here in Arizona a company called MOC markets the products we use to do the evap sweep. Hope this might help.

Im not sure. I only smell it when I hit the wash n wipe button for the wipers. As soon as the fluid hits the windshield, it smells musty.

Would this be the AC evap case?

Thanks yall

If it only happens when you use the squirters,no it doesn't sound like the evap.
