Default Fuse/ Washer fluid

Two questions, My winshield washer fluid does not come out anymore, and i filled it up and there are no leaks. The wipers go on when i pull the leaver but no fluid comes out. I had the hood open as i was changing my oil and i pulled the leaver and the fluid came out again, then i closed the hood and no go, what is up?

Also I went to autozone today to try and get a new fuse for the fuel pump relay and they looked at me funny. Where can i get this little block of a fuse?


Thanks again.

Did the hose get pinched somewhere?
Also disconnect hose from the valve on the hood and see if it comes out. First though you might want to listen for the motor and see if it is running.

What fuse is it that you are looking for?

Back to the washer problems. I dont hear anything at all anymore from the pump, but also where is the winshield washer pump located, maybe if i could find it i could fix it.

Agree with Tech, if opening the bonnet/hood improved things, then a pinched hose seems the most likely cause.

I don't have this model, but most washer fluid motors are attached to the windshield washer resevoir. Have an assistant operate the washers (ignition on but engine off), while you listen under the hood for the "whining" of the little washer motor. If you hear it then the motor & elec. supply are good & a blocked or pinched hose (or a blocked washer nozzle) most likely cause.

Yes the washer motor is located in the washer bottle. It should be on the bottom of the bottle.
