Icon2 Washer pump working but no spray? DA9 teg

So as I try to get my teg road legal I find that my wipers work but no washer fluid coming out of the nozzles(Front and rear nozzle). I tried to take a small needle and clean them but still no fluid. Is there anything else I can try? The pump comes on and wipers work just no fluid. Any help would be much appreciated

Trace the hoses and see if there is a disconnect somewhere

Take your driver side fender off and your bumper if you wish, it will allow you full access to the washer fluid container as well as the hoses

Trace the washer line for pinched hoses near the hood hinge mounts. If they're pinched no water will go through but your wash pump will still work, etc...

So I traced the lines they are all set can it be that the pump comes on but doesn't move/pump any liquid?

The pump may be clogged.
Do you see any water in the lines at all?
If so, the jets may be clogged.
If not, the pumps are bad or clogged.
Run some wd40 trough the pumps and jet b

When you say pumps do you mean there is two? Like in some car they have there own reservoir and pump. The lines are bone dry and the pump makes noise but seems like it isn't actually pumping any liquid at all. Should I just buy the 20$ pump at the store (NAPA) and try that?

pump's as in "pump is". But for 20$ go to a junk yard and grab a whole tank or 2 for that price i'd bet the pump is just old and something broke internally.
