Question Windshield Washer Won't Spray

My windshield washer will not spary...don't know when it stopped. I got plently of washer fluid and the line is not clogged. Everything looks good although I can't hear the pump working that pushes the fuild through the line. Is the pump shot or is there a fuse designated just for the pump? If so, which one?

I had a similar problem. My line was cracked . While looking under the hood have someone activate the washer to see if there are any leaks.

If you push the button for your washers and you don't hear the pump running, it's not a clogged line. I'd look for two main things. First, I'd start at the pump and using a test light, see if you've got power there with the switch activated. If not, go back one step and see if you've got power at the switch. If you have no power there, it's probably a fuse. Check your Owner's Manual to see which one it is. There is also a possibility that you lost ground too. I'd look for the fuse first because it's the easiest.

May also be a bad switch; just had the same thing on our car.
