Angry Washer Jets

One of my washer jets isnt working
There are two washer jets mounted on the bonnet & inside each casing is 2 washer jets. The jet on the left hand side that is supposed to clean the middle of the screen isnt working Both jets on the drivers side are working normally aswell as the washer jet that cleans the far side of the windsreen on the passengers side Ive tried clean any dirt away with a small pin but still nothing is happening But water is gathering in the jet its self Any ideas/fixes

Oh, and how can you tell if you have heated washer jets Mine dont working in the cold weather, even after 15mins

Heated washer jets are ****

If its icy you will see the ice melt around the jet on the bonnet. But the problem is the frozen fluid in the pipes...

the MINI has gone...

If you put youre lips against them after a couple of mins you will be able to feel them warming up..I say youre lips because there very sensitive to temperatures..Also check fuse 35 in the n/s fusebox..(its a 5 amp fuse that is the second one up in the middles row..this fuse is for heated washer jets and heated door mirrors)
Hope this info helps mate..
cheers
