Not getting washer fluid to my windshield.

Got fluid.
Not leaking.
Wipers work.
Seems like the washer pump, right?
There's not a fuse for it, right?

Thanks for anyone's input. I live on a dirt road, so I'm constantly wiping my windshield.

Do you hear the pump motor when you hit the “washer” lever? If so, likely either:

The connector that the hoses (to windshield and headlights) is clogged/broken.
The hoses to the windshield/headlights are clogged/have a cut - but likely not both at same time and/or if BOTH cut you’d see fluid somewhere.
Similarly it could be the sprayer nozzles, but unlikely that ALL would fail at same time

I’m thinking pump. Let me/is know. Could wiring connector to bottom of pump come off? Or the wiring itself got cut somewhere?

They're a dime a dozen. I don't hear anything. Might as well start there.
Thanks.

Even if you heard s9mething, it can still be failed. The impeller gets loose on the shaft.
If you’ve got a 12v drill battery, plug it to the pump. If the pump works, your issue is wiring. If it doesn’t, pump.
