Default My new S70

Hi all, I just got a new '99 S70 yesterday with 141k highway miles, and complete current service records and history. It's dark green metallic with a tan interior and has many, many optional things (little computer in the dash, dual autoclimate control, cd/cassette player, TRACS, etc.) All for $4995.

Anyway, my question is this: the headlight jets don't work. The wipers come on with the windshield washers, but the jets don't spray anything. The manual doesn't really talk about them much, so is there a seperate resevior that's just empty? Can I take the jets out to see if they're clogged? Where's the pump, so I can check that for operation? Thanks very much in advance! I'll post some pictures up later, too!

The regular washer pump feeds them.
There is a valve that goes bad.
Look with the hood open around the bumper for the hoses there is a Bigger hose that goes to a t then goes to 2 smaller hoses. Check there.
