Pump can be changed while the bottle is in place, take the cover off and get to the bottle, unhook the wire grip from the motor and pry the motor out making sure you dont damage the bottle.

Most likely the pump (motor) is gone and needs replacement. However, it is worth checking that fuse allocated to windscreen washer is intact. Furthermore, you may also need to check the wiring for flow of current at lever end (handle on the steering wheel) and wires connecting to pump on the water reservoir.
Jack & chock kerbside front. remove wheel and front part of wheel arch liner. disconnect supply pipes and wiring connector. withdraw pump (push-fit). catch washer fluid in bucket.
to replace reverse above.
Hardest part is removing liner as m/c screws will no doubt be seized. spray with wd to help.
Well first of all you can check out the valve in the washer pump which changes direction depending on which washer you press and it can stick, so you just take the valve out clean it and the problem goes away until a bit of dirt gets in and the valve sticks again. Please post comments if you need more help or information..........
I would follow the mechanics recommedations. I think he's taliking about the cam and crankshaft seals. Yes the water pump should be replaced as well. The pump that sprays windshield washer fluid onto the windshield is called the windshield washer pump. The water pump is on the engine and pumps water (coolant/antifreeze) through the engine to the radiator and heater core.
