Windshield washer system not working properly Used pin to clean-out hood mounted spray nozzles but nothing is coming out.. Washer fluid is full. is there a manual or diagram of system available to try to track down the problem?

Check and see if hose to that one is broke or torn.

Activate the washer fluid switch and listen to see if you can hear the pump making noise. If you can, the try disconnecting the washer fluid hoses and blowing through them to see if they are clogged. If they dont here are some steps to diagnose a faulty pump.

Fist find the washer pump, should be located at the bottom of the fluid bottle.
Second disconnect the harness from the pump, and hook a test light to both terminals.
Third have someone operate the switch for the pump and look to see if the light comes on.
If the light does come on then the pump is most likely burnt out. Replace the pump and you should be good to go.
If you don't have power trace the ground wire and make sure it is connected, then check your fuses and make sure none are blown.

First try to clean out the squirter nozzles.Take a very small wire, sometimes a staple works great, and stick it into the nozzle to clear any debris.Then try to spray it again.If this didn't solve the problem and the debris is cleared, then you either have a weak or blocked pump, which is located on the washer reservoir itself.Hope I could help!!! Rate me accordingly!! Thanks!

Windshield washer spray nozzles ( at least for the ones that are on the hood that spray the fluid onto the windshield ) hope this helps.

follow the hoses to the hood or wiper arm (i dont know where your spray nozzles are)and disconnect hem and press the spray button. if it sprays your nozzles are plugged, if not its your pump motor.

First thing to do is make sure it is full of washer fluid. I know, who would not check that? You would be surprised. Ok, now we know it is full so why is it not working? Did you check the fuse. Normally you can hear it try to work by having the hood open while you stand there and have someone try it. It is full and fuse is good and it is trying to pump then either the pump is working but not really pumping anything or what I suspect is more likely is that the spray nozzles are clogged with wax. This is very common and I have seen it time and time again. Remove one of the rubber hoses from a spray nozzle and see if it it pumping out fluid. If it is not, then the pump is bad and must be replaced. It it is pumping fluid then the nozzles are clogged. Use a fine needle to clean out the nozzles. You may have to take the nozzle off in order to clean it throughly. More than likely once you probe inside the nozzles with the needle they will start working. If you end up having to remove the nozzles, and they are metal, which they normally are, you can place them in a pan of boiling water. This will for sure clean them out. The hot water will soften the wax and make it easy to pick and blow out. Have a great 2010, and good luck getting your washer fixed.

Had that happen to me before. Simply raise the hood and locate the plastic or rubber tube running to out put nozzle on hood. Disconnect and see if fluid shoots out. If it shoots out, simple take a needle of safety pin and clean out the nozzles located on the hood and should work. To clean the nozzle, you will have to lower the hood. If you want to you can do that before raising the hood. Oh by the way I assume you have verified that the reservoir is full.

Check the hoses running to the front windshield washer nozzles. If the hoses are good check the pump to see if it is working correctly. Remove one of the hoses from the spray nozzle and see if the pump is working. If it is then the spay nozzles are stopped up. Use a needle to clean them out. They can easily get plugged with wax. If the pump is not working then either the fuse is blown or the pump is defective.

There is a fluid "pump" that is generally below the washer fluid reservoir under the hood. To check if the pump is bad try to spray some fluid and have someone listen under the hood while you are doing this. If they hear a hum or the system sounds like it is active but you are getting no fluid spraying out then you probably have a kink or stoppage. The spray nozzles are right below the windshield wipers and sometimes a piece of debris has lodged itself in. You can take a safety pin or something similar and try to get it out that way. If not you may have to take the hose apart and clean it that way. Hope this works for you.

It does not take very much dirt in the washer fluid reservoir to plug the nozzles for the windshield washers. check for dirt in the reservoir and clean out if need be. If you are in below freezing temperatures make sure your washer fluid is good for below freezing. mike
