My ford fiesta windscreen washers don't work. The pump makes noise when you activate the washers. I checked the jets and pipes in the bonnet by applying compressed air, there is no blockage in the pipes and air goes through bubbling to the tank.
Is it the pump? Even if it sounds like it is working? How do I replace it?

Hello,

First thing you want to make sure that all the hoses are connected and you do not have a damaged hose.
The pump can still be defective even though it makes the noise.

Here is a helpful article about replacing the pump:

Please let me know of any questions.

Thank you.
