Punto wipers - no spray

    I have a 2006 Grande Fiat Punto. When I hit the wipers front and back I hear a click but no water spray comes out. I have topped up the water thinking it was that but it's still not working.

    Any thoughts appreciated. Hoping not to have to visit the garage.

    Is there a noise like a hum or something when you do so? If there is, it may be that there is a blockage or the motor. If there isn't any noise whatsoever, maybe check fuse for it? If that blew, it's either just a bad fuse or the motor may be on the way. Now I'm not an expert, so these may all be completely wrong :pac: :pac:

    When checking for the noise, maybe it would be easier to ask someone to listen out for it outside the car rather than inside as it may be a very soft sound that is possibly isn't even audible on the inside of the car as the motor is possibly small.

    Nozzles could be blocked? Cleaning them with a pin or needle would be worth a try.
