I am located in Hamburg NY area and of course its winter and my wiper fluid are not spraying I purchased the orange color fluid I hear it but it wound push through please help
Sounds to me part of the tubing is frozen shut from the pump to nozzle, nozzle may be clogged as well. The pump motor might run, but pump on the end faulty. Remove tubing from pump and see if it squirts out, if so replace tubing to pump and remove tubing from nozzle on hood or wiper, check to see if it squirts from there. IF it does then your nozzle is clogged with wax or ice.

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

I have the same problem with my '06 Spectra 5. I haven't noticed the knocking sound though. The weird thing is my rear window washer works fine which leads me to believe that the washer pump is still OK but what do I know :D
SOURCE: windshield washer does not pump fluid
The pump works off the same circuit as the wipers, so it would be same fuse. Most likely the pump is no bad.

Try standing outside of the vehicle and having someone press the "juice" button and listen to see if the motor is trying to spray. If it is....check to to see if you have contaminents in the windshield wiper fluid reservoir.
