Windscreen washer stopped working

As title, but can still hear motor/pump working just no fluid coming out.

yes it does have fluid in

Ideas?

Most likely cause is the impeller on the pump is cattle trucked (not uncommon). Motor still runs but nothing is being pumped. Otherwise, if the pump is ok, the jets are blocked.

Either switch the pumps for the front and rear washers (they have a pump each) or switch the pipes over. (If you switch the pipes you'll need to use the rear screen washer to squirt the front screen). This will then tell you if it's the pump or pipe work/washer jets are at fault.

On An old car of mine the washer got slower and slower until it stopped, pump was fine but the tank was full of green gunge, a bit like moss. Typical of only topping up with tap water and not screenwash. On my scenic, it's single pump and washes the front screen only, whether you ask for front or back. but it's a bumper off job to get at it!

Try a needle or sowing pin in the spray jet hole, might clan out the gunk, or take ashtray out and pipe off the washer jet and test there is water getting there.

Ok thanks for the tips, I reckon the pumps had it then as I only cleared out the nozzle recently. Will try again to be sure. Don't have a back washer and the terminal is broken on it anyway.

I had this a year or so ago. On investigation I discovered that the tube had got pinched between two bits of dashboard trim. Nice and cheap and easy!

I had it on my 2001 TD5. It was the £2-3 non return valve clogged with washer bottle debris/gunge. The NR valve sits in the plastic pipe between the pump and the windscreen nozzle. Take off the front nearside headlight and look through the hole to see the washer bottle and the pump or pumps. If there are two of them , get the wife or a mate to press the washer button and you feel which pump is buzzing away. To change the pump, just pull it out of the washer bottle and take of the wiring unit and the feed pipe. I used my rear pump by swapping over the two feed pipes to do a test and my pump then blew water out of the rear unit so it proved it was the NR valve or the nozzle.

I had this problem. Had managed to kink a pipe when fiddling around the under the bonnet.
