windshield fluid spray not working Please Help

As the subject says, when I press the button for fluid nothing comes out and I know the fluid level isn't low. I can hear it make a noise like it is trying to work. It stopped working about a month ago on a road trip through the desert, and was only spraying out one side before that. Any advice would be greatly appreicated.

Take a needle or something small and sharp and clean the little holes that it comes out of. Sometimes things dry up in there and block the passage. Good luck

I tried that but it didn't seem to fix the problem, any other suggestions?

Pull the hoses off and make sure the pump is working. Then check the lines to see where the clog is.

I had the same problem with mine. mine kind of dribbled out of the top. What i did was pull the hood cover from underneath the hood off and i had to reconnect the windsheild fluid hose. Mine had slice in it. I had to cut tthe hose off past the slice then reconnected it. I had to get new hood clips from the Nissan Dealer but they were like one bux.
good luck
