Windshield washer fluid no worko...(no forum solutions I found worked)
So I recently did a rear wiper delete on my 2004 R50, and I think it was after that that my front windshield washer stopped working. When I turn the ****, I can hear the pump running, but nothing comes out.
I've searched the forum and found possible solutions like a kink in the hose or a leaky reservoir, but there is not a kink in the normal problem area and the reservoir doesn't leak. Any other ideas of what the issue could be? I plugged the rear hose real good when i did the rear wiper delete so I know that's not leaking...
Next plan is to take the hood foam off and check underneath I guess?

Haha, I already did that like 3 days ago and it's still full. That's what I originally thought the issue was, until I filled it up. Any other ideas?

That could be it, but not for me. I'm not even getting pressure to my hose for the front. I took off the firewall today and no pressure at all all the way there. Now I have to take the stinking wheel off and the whole wheel well cover. Yuck. This better work.

I have the same problem, none of my jets work front or rear, and I suspect the pump, just haven't gotten around to replacing it yet. I did read somewhere that a guy reported his pump had stripped gears. It's not hard to get to, it's under the passenger wheel plastic. I'll investigate more the next time I rotate tires.
