Default Winshield Washer Sprayer help

I replaced my windshield washer pump in my 2002 Honda Accord. I hear the motor engage and no water shoots out the nossles. I don't see the fluid leaking on the ground and the fluid is topped off.

ANy suggestions on how to trace the line from the pump to the nossles? Perhaps I am overlooking something..

question: did you diagnose the washer pump being bad first before replacing?


Could be a kinked line, blocked nozzles (happened on mine when i purchased it - all four orifices!). For the nozzles I used a thin but stiff piece of wire (think thin needle width) and viola! back in action.

Also, did you unhook the water fluid hose under the hood and push the button for washer fluid to see if it comes out of the hose.?
