Hi my wipers work fine but no water comes from them.
I think the hoses my be attached the wrong way:

Who, what, where, when and how?
 
Should wrap it around the plug wires a couple times :poke:

My neighbor came home with a 66 Impala and 2 of the plug wires were way to long.
They wrapped those 2 around the steering shaft a few times then to the plugs.
Not kidding.

First off, that is a manual foot pump washer reservoir, the electric washer reservoir has the pump mounted in the bottom of the tank... Unless the later models used that washer reservoir with an external pump...

Next, where do the washer hoses go to??? The output hose should go to an "f" connector that mounts to the cowl and has one inlet and two outlets....


More pictures of the whole system will help us figure out what's going on....


Maybe tell us what year, make, and model car we are looking at can help us give you better advice....

Looks like your wiper sprayer is manual. Meaning there would be a foot pump by the dimmer switch.
It will look something like this

From the resovor bottle the hose will go through a gasket on the firewall, down to the foot pump, back up through the firewall to the "F" connector, from there it branches to the 2 squirters that spray through the slats on the cowel.

This is a kit with all but the foot pump.

Routing will look something like this, but this is an electric pump version.
