My real windshield stopped pumping the windshield fluid a month ago. and Today, my front windshield did not do any job. If I push my windshield cleaning button, the windshields itself begins to move, but no fluid comes out from a whole where it supposes to come out.
My battery seems pretty low although it is within a normal range. I am suspecting the washerpump now because it seems like this is only factor to affect the performance of windshield fluid. Any idea?
I just want to hear you guys experiences with a windshield fluid pump

Have you waxed the vehicle lately? I have seen the little opening get plugged before. Use a paperclip to clean them. Thats probably not whats wrong here, but thought I would ask.
 






I think i should try that
 






does it make noise when you try to get it to spray? when was the last time you checked the fluid level of the reservoirs?
 






Washer Pump

Theres a set of relays that operate the washer pump which in my case were not sitting properly in the holders. I had no water to the front and after buying a new pump discovered the relays in a box to the side of the engine. Fiddled with them a bit and they started working again.
Good luck
