    Washer Fluid not spraying

    I bought my car with the engine having been swapped in the past and the washer fluid not being able to spray. It's my first car and I've never really worried about it too much, but I'm wondering if anyone would be able to give me a quick pointer that could help me get it working.

    Here's a video to show a few cables that are unplugged that don't seem to go together. https://youtu.be/2RJiucvyMR4

    I appreciate any help I can get! :)

    Thanks.

          Do you hear the pump working when you actuate it from the steering column control stalk? If yes, your lines are clogged.

          If not pull the connector and get a multimeter on there to test for 12V. If you're getting 12V the pump is bad. If you don't get 12V first check for a blown fuse.
