Long story short I just bought a 2002 9-5 ARC, it has 65K miles on it.  I picked it up in Tampa, FL and drove it home to Green Bay, WI.  I made most of the journey home and then the windshield washer/sprays stopped working.  They appreared to be frozen up which I've had happen before on other cars since the temp was about 15F.  Anyhow, after sitting in a warm garage, still nothing.  The wipers activate, but no fluid, (yes its full).  I checked any fuses that I thought might be related and they looked good.  So...where do I start??  Thanks!

Does the motor make any noise?  Take the hose leading to the hood off and see if it sprays out of there, if it does it's either the check valves or the sprinklers themselves....if the check valves are bad feel free to just use vaccuum L-fittings from an auto store instead, those things are pointless and break all the time...
