Default winshield washers not working

As my topic says, my washers are not working. My front doesn't work at all. I held down the handle for a good minute and half, still nothing. then i tried my rear, drops came out of the rear, no spray. They were working fine about a month and half ago, but i have not used them since then. anybody have any idea on what to check? i was planning on just taking it to acura on monday.

check to see if the nozzles are plugged with something, like wax or dirt. just stick a needle in the hose opening while operating the washer and see if that clears your problem.

if you don't hear a humming noise when operatiing the washer motor, that could also be your problem. that will be covered under warrenty.

good luck.
