If the pump is running when you hit the switch your spray nozzels are more than likely plugged. If you have access to an air compressor remove the nozzles from the hood and disconnect the hose running to them and blow air through them in the opposite direction of the flow of washer fluid.

Are you using MB washer fluid? Aftermarket ones can cause the hose to clog.

Might just be bad luck. Pop the motor out and inspect and clean. Worst case just replace the motor and grommets.

I can't imagine any aftermarket washer fluid clogging the system unless something else ended up inside the tank.

I had a similar problem with one of the nozzles on the driver side. I used a large syringe and forced air through the nozzle in the opposite direction several times until it cleared up. Do be careful not to push the needle too deep into the nozzle.

I had the problem, in my case it is the electronic who went out, expensive module, so I run a wire from the fuse box and power the motor
