Washer nozzles not spraying? (95 Civic EX)
 

Hey guys,

It's not my car and I've never touched anything mechanical on a Honda in my life. My old roommates car won't spray washer fluid. She said she put fluid in it and tried replacing fuses and stuff but she doesnt know what else to check and I'm just trying to help her out by posting on here. Can someone give her some steps to try or things to check? thanks.:)

fluid resivoir is behind/the drivers side headlight

There is a pump on the resivoir and a hose running from it.

you reach in from the top or bottom and hold the resivoir and she pulls the sprayer.

If you feel vibrations there is a clog in a line, if not check to see that the motor is getting power by hooking a test lead to the plug and having lady pull the sprayer again. If there is power replace motor, if not.....

check fuses and relays.

Where are you located?

Ok, I'll pass that information on to her. Can you PM me your contact information?

Make sure the hoses are intact. If one of the hoses is cracked or not attached then you'll have wiper fluid going... somewhere else.

The first thing to do is listen if the pump is running when the switch is pressed. This is the most simple electrical device on the entire car, so it's usually easy to track down.
