Default winshield washer trouble

Did anyone here have washer troubles? I checked the motor on the bottle and it works fine, but it won't work off the switch. Is there a separate fuse or relay for the washer? It's a 90 accord TIA

i use it.. what r you asking? r u saying u can hear the motor working but the fluid doesnt exit the nozzles on hood to windshield? follow the tubing from the nozzles on the hood, down the driver's side and see if the rubber is crimped or broken. there is a pc that looks like an elbow that gets disconnected or dry rotted out and needs to be replaced where the hood meets the fender..u may see solution there.. the dealer would have the parts..the tubing or the nozzles could be clogged..u can use a small paper clip to clean out the nozzle heads and redirect them. sometimes the nozzles themselves dont fit tight enough on the hood and they wont work. check and see if they r clipped on flush to the hood..

a friend of mine had a 90 accord and his washer solution would only exit the nozzles with the hood up, that is how he found the rotten pc of rubber. when he put the hood back down the fluid wouldnt exit the nozzles.

The pump works and sprays onto the windshield. It doesnt work off the switch on the steering column. I can hook it up direct, but thought someone on here might have had the same problem, guess not!
