I'm sure this was discussed in earlier thread but can't find an answer. So, I can hear the pump run, the wipers are wiping and no fluid coming out. I checked, the reservoir is full. I used the needle to unclog the nozzles (both side) and nothing! Help?

Did you accidentally let the washer fluid run dry before refilling it?

Are you letting the pump run long enough if the tubes going to the nozzles were dried out?

Is it possible the tube was pinched?

Sorry if these are perceived as simple but let's try the easy cheap fix first.

I picked up this car 10 days ago. Didn't use it much so I didn't get the chance to use the wipers. Not sure if the previous owner let it run dry. I let the pump run for several seconds, nothing. Haven't seen anything unusual on the area of the tubes that are exposed...

Once I let it run dry and it took a LONG time for the pump to prime and refill the tubes before it exited the nozzles. If I remember right it was almost 10-12 pulls on the wiper stick before it started to run fluid through.

Let it run a while and see if it runs though.

Still no luck. I'll try and remove the nozzles, not sure how though.
 
Try disconnecting the hoses from the nozzles, then spray. That will tell you if nozzles are still clogged. If clogged use compressed air to blow out debris
