Windscreen washers not working (help)

Yesterday I ran out of water for the headlight and windscreen bottle and the warning sign came on. I filled it up but did not try it yesterday. However today I went to use it and nothing came out. I thought at first it might be the fuse (f10 which I can't find) but now I don't think its that as I can hear the pump working when I pust the stick in.

Can anyone tell me if there is a resst for this and how you do it or is there something else I can try.

Thanks

You mayy have a leak - either on the underside of the tank, or at the pop-up nozzles.

Skylaw, cheers for that but I found out what was wrong aka ME! A bit of advice for people, don't run your tank dry as it will pick up all the crap of the day and block your jets. After pissing about trying to find a fault that was not there I thought I'll check the nozzles with a pin and hey fixed it no time (what a t..t)
