Check the washer pump. It is located under the air cleaner assembly. There will be a connector with tow terminals. there should be power on the red wire anytime the washer button is pressed. There should be ground on the black wire at all times. If there is no power than check the washer fluid fuse and relay in the underhood fuse block. If there is power than the pump is probably bad.

SOURCE: Windshield Washer Fluid does not come out.

if your wipers work it is not a fuse,
if you cannot hear the pump humming when you push the wash button you will need to replace it,they are around $20.00 at Autozone

SOURCE: Rear windshield washer motor works, but no fluid comes out

Rear washer may have it's own reservoir . Can you hear a pump humming when you activate the washer? Look in the under flooor compartment

SOURCE: my windshield washers wont spray, but they are

do you hear the mini washing water pump noise (working)? if no: check fuse panel where labled washer... if yes: there could be a blockage in the very fine sprays ontop of hood, due to prevoius not clean water used before or any pricipitant..... you need to use a very thin wire or tool to clean it

the windshield washer pump might be bad. It should be located somewhere on the reservoir

In my 2007 Saturn Vue there is what I think is an air pump which is cracked that one port is not connected to anything.

There is a electric motor that pumps washer fluid . Located in the bottom of the washer fluid tank .
Wash Operation (Front and Rear Wipers)
The front and rear washer systems use the same windshield washer fluid pump. When either the front or rear wiper is in the washer position voltage will be supplied to one side of the windshield washer fluid pump (depending on whether it is front or rear), while the other side of the pump is grounded.
At this point, the windshield washer fluid pump sprays solvent onto the windshield. When the front or rear washer is activated, the BCM receives an input from the switch that is activated. The BCM will control the wipers while in the WASH mode. The BCM will control either the front wiper relay or the rear wiper relay to turn on the wipers. The windshield wipers operate at low speed for 3 swipes and returns to the park position.

When turning on the washers do you hear the motor run ? Have some one try it while you listen at the washer fluid tank ! These pump motors do go bad .
turn OFF the ignition.
Disconnect the harness electrical connector of the windshield washer fluid pump.
Connect a test lamp from the windshield washer pump control circuit to a good ground .
Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
Press the front washer switch.
Does the test lamp illuminate?
YES or NO !

I have a 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee, and the windshield wiper fluid doesn't come out on either the front or back window. The washer fluid deposit is full and you can slightly hear the motor. Is there a way...

When the temperature gets below freezing and you use a bargain windshield washer fluid or plain water, it freezes and won't work. I normally drain every drop, not just add to what's already in there, and refill with Prestone yellow windshied washer fluid that has a lower freezing point.etort

How do I replace the windshield washer low fluid sensor. The low windshield washer fluid light is on and will not go off even though the washer fluid tank is full.

That sensor can be replaced. It's located on the washer fluid bottle which is found behind the front bumper and next to the passenger's fender.

Rear windshield washer works but front does not....Any suggestions? Washer fluid is full, fuses are good, wipers work but no fluid or sound of pump running when lever is used to spray fluid on front...

Probably need to replace the pump. Separate pumps for front and rear. Check with a test light to see if there is power to the pump. If it has power but won't work, replace the pump. If no power, you have a wiring issue. Be sure to turn the switch on and have someone push the washer button when you are checking for power. There won't be any until you push it to "wash".
