check the fuses and the wiring to the pump. You could have someone listen under the hood when you press the button... it could be a clogged pump, burned out pump, bad wiring to the pump, or clogged lines somewhere. many things will cause tha tproblem. my problem is my pump is weak and only blows a mist on one side [:@]

i'm not sure where the fuse will be. It's probably under the dash in the fuse panel. Find your owners manual as it tells which fuse does what and pull the one that is for those. If that's good, we can go from there

it might be. What you'll want to do is take off the plastic panel with the hood up, the panel at the top of the firewall. Under there will be all the lines for the fluid. Pull off a line closest to the pupm and turn the pump on and see what you get
