i've heard the ol' bang the top of the bottle is the first thing to try since the floating mechanism will get stuck in the down position, i just unplugged mine years ago without really giving that much of a try lol

nah i just top off the washer fluid like every other oil change and it's always still got fluid to spare... i don't take the car out in conditions where you'd have to keep spraying the windshield anyway lol so i get pretty good mileage out of my washer fluid

With mine the hose that goes to the hood cracked and burst in the fender. Not in a hurry to fix it. Plus in CA it rains prolly once lol
