I have a 2001 Outback my windshild washer resavoir is almost full

but no fluid will come out. Any ideas as to what is going on and how

to fix it?

Thanks for any help

probably needs a new pump or the lines are clogged. my guess is the pump needs replaced. they're like $20 at the auto parts store, usually generic (though i've never replaced one yet on this new of a Subaru, they dont' fail that often), so you can buy them at any auto parts store.

it happened to me once. i tried to swap the hoses from the front pump to the rear but the hoses wouldn't reach.

 

so i swapped in a used unit from a sedan i had sitting around, no rear wash. and finally i found a good wagon washer bottle. still working.

Get a helper, someone to sit in the car to operate the squirter switch, while with hood open, you listen to see if the squirter motor/pump is making noise when it is suppose to be pumping. If you hear noise, then pull off the hose to see if fluid will squirt out. If so, then the squirter holes on the hood are plugged up. Use a needle to poke in the holes to clean out dirt. Hope these ideas help.
