Thanks Thriftyfun! I have mastered the art of unclogging Swiffer Wet Jets. First, rise off the jets with hot water and stick a pin up into each jet. I used a quilting pin because they are thin and about 1.5 inches long and have a nice round head so it's easy to pull it in and out. Then I replaced all four AA batteries. The Swiffer Wet Jet requires fresh batteries. (Still cheaper than paying someone else to mop my floor.) Now both of my Wet Jets work like new. I had bought the second one before accepting that this problem required some research.

Just tried this and new batteries were the answer. Thank you!!
I t's the button that does not work on mine. Suddenly just stopped. I have changed batteries, unclogged, etc. I think this is a different problem but one I had before. Expensive iff you have to keep replacing.
Did the trick :)
These things definitely did the trick. I had changed the batteries, but discovered I had put them in wrong. Duh! I also used the pin to unclog. It works better than new. Thanks!
Thanks so much for mentioning the batteries. I didn't realize it ran on batteries. I cleaned it and it still didn't work until I replaced the batteries!
Perfect answer thx...I had stuck a pin in the hole but it didnt really make a difference but this method was perfect.. rinsing heads and pin and replaced batteries and voila...its working!!!
My wetjet was a purchased and has sat in the closet unused for about a year (in box). We moved into an apartment with wood floors so I thought Id use it. I put in the batteries and installed the small bottle of cleaner that came with it. The bottle will not click into place. I go to mop and it falls out. I got the damn thing working for less than a minute, nozzles were working properly, etc. All of a sudden I only get bubbles. REALLY upset at this thing and am about to throw it out the window.
I already ordered a new Swiffer Wet jet. But after reading this I changed my Batteries and it is now spraying. Boy do I feel dumb.
Just bought wet jet yesterday. Does not spray. Bottle of fluid falls out... Very dissapointed. My opinion... Piece of crap. Prove me wrong
