Can u hear the pump? They will only work with lights on. My pump had seized due to water ingress. Stripped and lubricated. All OK now.

Also they will only work once. They wash twice. Then you need to use the washers about 10 times to re activate the headlamp washers. Or turn the lights off and on again
