Fuse (Wiper Sprayer) Help

So I've tried looking through the manual, I've tried looking through the fuse box under hood and under the dash and I just can't find it.

When I use my sprayer, nothing sprays. I've unhooked the tubing right where it enters the hood and it's no good either. I've had a friend hold the sprayers while I stick my head in the rear fender (when I had my carpet out for replacing) and I can't hear any sort of motor working back there either which leads me to believe it's either the fuse or the motor that's gone.

I don't know the technical term for the sprayer motor that I'm looking for or even it it has its own fuse, but I figured this is the best place to ask.

tl;dr windshield washer sprayers don't work, looking for which fuse they're on

I have the same issue. Wasn't big enough of a deal for me to try and fix it but it would be nice to know.

Yea, it's not a huge thing (I also got the car in Feb after most of the bad weather) but I figure with winter coming up it'll be nice in case I do need it

Could be the pump, both sprayer pumps are in the trunk attached below the resivore, if the rear sprayer still works, you can troubleshoot it and swap plugs/harnesses for the front windshield pump with the rear an if it works, you could figure out if it's the pump that's out. If not, it's a fuse, I don't remember where it is but did you check both fuseboxes?
my intercooler sprayer crapped out on me and I also could not figure it out.

Hmm...I don't think I even knew we had a rear sprayer..I'll look for it and test that one.

Unless there's a secret fuse box hidden somewhere I've checked the under-hood one and under-dash one and can't find anything in them, is the wiper sprayer on the same fuse as the intercooler sprayer would be been? I think I recall running across that fuse label somewhere...

When you hit the wipers listen to see if you hear the pump turn on. I dont believe there is a seperate fuse for just the pump.

My guess would be a bad washer fluid pump/bad connection.

Mine was the pump located on the fluid reservoir in the trunk.
