Windshield Washer

I have a problem when I go to clean my windows, I Pull back to activate the sprayers but only the wipers will go. There is fluid in the resivoir. And I dont see it leaking anywhere. Has anyone else had a problem with this. My car is a 98 civic 4dr.

RE: Windshield Washer

check the lines to see what happends when you pull the handle..it the fluid moving trying to spray out? it could be the pump is gone..or somthing is just cloging the nozzles

RE: Windshield Washer

When you are testing it, listen for the pump motor. On a 98 I would not think that the motor would be bad already, but who knows. If you hear that but no fluid comes out, check your lines. If you have had the car in the shop, they may have disconnected the line that leads to the hood, check for that. Not too uncommon. Good luck.

Yeh, and if you think the pump isn't working, just unplug it and run a temporary wire directly from the battery and hook it up to the pump to see if it actually works.
