Remove left front tire and splash guard. There are two pumps, the one for the headlight washer is more to the bottom left. You can't really miss it, the hose to the sprayers is connected. Unplug the wire connector and hose then pull out the pump, without cracking the reservoir. There are a couple ways to test it. Before you remove it have someone activate washers and listen for the pump, no sound then the pump is bad. Or, use a multimeter and check continuity across the leads as well as voltage test on the wire connector.

I'm curious as well. I don't want mine to work. They dont wash at all, and spray down my hood, making it look like hell when it dries.

I wish mine would quit working as well. It doesn't matter if the headlights are on or not or how long you hold the stick they spray. I'm always finding my washer fluid empty and Know I only used the winshield washers a couple of times since filling it up.

i have never seen mine work. I tried holding the windshield washer for 10 secs, a few different times. I ended up running out of fluid very quickly, but my headlights never got wet! I got a 99.5 by the way.
