Today morning all of a sudden windshield fluid refused to come out of both outlets in my ES350 Year 2007. it happened first time. all i see are few drops coming out of outlet holes but they are not sprayed on windshield at all. I tried to see if there is any ice blocking it but it looks good.
I live in Toronto, temperature for last few nights here is freezing cold around -25C (-9 F). I always use the proper windshiled fluid and never use water
Any help in this regard would be appreciated

It still could be some ice somewhere in hoses, or debris.
Do you hear the pump working?

thanks LjeksesES, pump seemed to be working, it turned out that extreme cold weather caused this issue. This car is parked outside in the driveway and temperature went down to -25C at night, which caused ice frozen somewhere in the hose thus fluid not being sprayed on windshield...
Surprisingly this never happened in my old Camry :

I've read a number of reports on BMW and Audi forums of washers clogging up. In those cases the owners were using Rain X washer fluid. Any chance that's what you have? It is a known issue and you could probably find some information with a search.

Hi LexBob2, you got it right, it was the washer fluid. I normally use a fluid that is blue color and weather cold level -35, recently I bought another one that is green color and weather temp -40, both fluids got mixed, i.e. there was blue already in it and I poured green fluid to top it up. Plus it was extreme cold in those days... the weather is less cold since then and I never had the problem again.
I guess in future I will try to use same color fluid so problem woudn't occur

thanks
