Recently bought an '01 SL1 and the windshield washers do not work. Fluid is full. lines SEEM to be clear - not squirting. Which fuse is "in control" ? NOT marked, and do not have a manual (YET). Thanks for assistance. I know it's a simple fix = just not where to look.

 

The fuse is located in the Instrument Panel Junction Block (IPJB) ... marked as WIPER. 25 amp. If the wipers operate, the fuse is not the problem ...

 

Most likely the washer pump motor is clogged with old grease or just burned out. I'd check that if it were mine.

 

Much thanks, WILL look further when time permits. The wipers work fine. (next day off)

 

If the wipers work OK, then like Rube says, clogged lines, clogged tank, bad motor -- or a combination of the three

 

I had to replace the pump in mine, its pretty easy to do.
