Default 2011 Lexus IS250 windshield washer pump

Hi there, I've searched around with no luck maybe I'm blind or something but my IS250's windshield washer pump stopped working. Dealership wants to charge me $500 for this replacement. Just wondering if there's a DIY online here somewhere. I've got some spare time and if i could save a few bucks why not

Edit: There is no noise when the pump is activated and the fuse is ok.

Remove the driver's side front wheel. Remove or pull back the wheel liner. You should be able to access the bottom the of the tank and pump at this point. Maybe the front-most under tray will need to be removed?

Seems like a relatively easy fix with a good working pump and any seals/gaskets if needed to seal the pump into the tank.

Good luck!

Yes that was exactly what i was thinking. The dealer wanted to remove the front bumper and headlight(im not sure why) quoting me 2.2 hours for labor!
