Sounds like the hose has separated or been cut, find the joining end and marry them together, if it is split, cut it and rejoin it, good luck

SOURCE: 2001 Buick Regal LS windshield washer fluid does not spray

There are a number of different issues that could cause this.

-The circuit for the wiper should be the same as the washer; same fuse. -I'd suggest trying to run the washer while the hood is open and the engine off. If it runs, you should hear a dull whine.(a 2nd person might be of use to help look and listen)...(find the pump by following the hoses from the wipers to a unit mounted close to the dashboard in the engine compartment)
-If it runs, check to see if any fluid is coming from a hose that might have become disconnected.
-If the pump runs, and if you see no fluid coming from anywhere, and if you can reach the hose connected to the washer pump, pull that hose off the pump. Try running the pump again to see if anything comes out in a good stream.
-If the pump doesn't run at all, check to make sure the connector hasn't come loose.
-If the pump still doesn't run, check to see if you have 12 volts at the connector at the pump. A simple check can be done with an auto bulb connected to the plug at the motor while the pump switch is pushed.
-If you have power at that point, you likely need to replace the pump and motor.(depending upon the age of vehicle & your mechanical abilities...a call to a local wrecking yard is suggested ..atleast to compare the cost vs. new)

hope that helps

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

If the pump still makes noise, you may just have clogged nozzles, have you tried those yet? Also, if you have windshield cleaner left over from summer, it may have frozen in the lines.

SOURCE: WIndshield washer system doesn't spray water

remove the pump, there is a screen filter on the pump itself and it gets clogged very often.

Hello,

Which Fuse is the windshield washer fuse on a 2016 Ford F150?
Spencer - the washer fluid pump is fed off the same fuse as the windshield wiper, i.e., #22 which is a 30 amp fuse. If the wipers work, the fuse is fine...could be another issue

What is the problem you are facing? Are you not getting any fluid spray from the nozzle? Could be a clogged hose, broken washer fluid pump or switch...

I recommend taking these steps, as I saw from another F150 site:
Open hood
** Locate washer fluid bottle
** Find the rubber hose near the bottom coming off of it
** Follow hose up to near firewall and find a connector
** Take hose off connector and point away from yourself
** Have someone power on the truck
** Press spray button
** If fluid then pump is working problem is after the connector near the sprayers
** If no Fluid then either the Pump is bad or the switch is bad.

My washer fluid won't spray.
Make sure the container is full.
Stand very near the container and have someone attempt to use the washer spray and listen for the sound of the pump to make sure it's working.
If not working, either blown fuse or faulty washer pump.

If it is making noise, you can look on the underside of the hood near the windshield for the washer hoses where they go into the hood.
Carefully pull a hose off and try the sprayer again.

If you get water pumping out, the clog is at the hood nozzles. That can usually be cleared out with a thin sewing needle or a single piece of wire cut off a large wire brush.

If no water came out of the hose you removed, you will need to remove the washer fluid reservoir (large bottle, usually hidden pretty deep into the fender/bumper and drain it, then check for clogs at the washer pump screen.

Replaced washer pump and still no pressure
For front windshield, the hoses are usually easy to locate and replace. This is cheap hose so replace it. Other issues are that the spray nozzles can freeze if you don't have correct fluid in them. Most of these can also be replaced, but this may be harder depending on the location. I don't know on your car, but many modern cars have these attached to the wiper arms, so it may be very easy.

Windshield washer fluid not coming up at front, just at the rear
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.

When i go to use the windshield wipers the wipers move but the fluid which is full doesn't come out.
follow the windshield spray nasal water lie to the pump making sure the line is not broken, next do you hear the pump running when you spay the fluid, if not that the pump is faulty, if you do hear the pump running, more likely the windshield spray nasal is clog with debris; to unclog it try to use a clothes needle, poke around in it to see if you can clear the blockage, if not, replace will be the best idea, fairly cheap and easy to replace. those windshield tank and the pump does not have good filter on them and they tend to get clog up in the pump or the spray nasal.
