You may have a blockage in the tubing or check valves that run from the pump to the nozzles, or you may have a bad pump. First see if you hear the pump run when you actuate the washers. If not, troubleshoot that. Next try disconnecting the tubing before the first tee connector on the underside of the hood and actuate the washers, looking for some fluid to be ejected from the open tube. It is actually a check valve as well as a tee and may be clogged. If that's OK, keep adding pieces back into the system until you determine exactly where the blockage is... -Fred W
