Does the fluid come out of the nozzle? If the answer is no, I'd say you have a bad washer fluid pump. It *should* be located on the resovior tank and is fairly easy to replace.

If no fluid comes out but you hear a "buzzing" sound then I'd say check and make sure you have fluid with which to wash the windows. LOL

Also, be sure to check that the hoses going to the washer nozzles are connected properly.

The fuse for the washer motor is No. 20, and it is a 20 amp. I believe it's in the box under the hood. I would check that.
