I have a 1997 buick lesabre and when i turn the windshield washers on they work fine but when I try to use the washer nothing comes out but there is fluid in the tank. The wipers go so slow they almo

If it is something simple I would rather fix it myself than spend $$$ to take it to a garage to get fixed. Thanks for any suggestions or help.

try the fuse first. then try sticking a pin into the washer jets. then try having the washer fluid pump/motor replace. if those are not the case, then you need a new switch to operate the pump motor. (a whole new control column)

I have a 1992 Buick Lesabre Limited. The windshield wipers work on high and low but not intermitent also there is no power to the windshield washer pump on the resevoir.

This is the switch itself. Replace the switch and all will be well. If you need instructions, let me know. Happy new year.

Replaced windshield washer pump, lines are clear, but won't work.

check fuses and/or wiring harness attached to pump. Use a continuity light (10-15 dollars at any auto store) and check to see the pump is getting electricity by having a friend turning on the washer pump and placing the continuity light probe on the electrical connector to the pump and the fues. if you have no light come on when you place the continuity light to the wiring harness then its a ground wire or the fuse.

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
