@tlotlonfila it will help us to help you if you can tell us if it works in the back but not the front etc. Also, let us know if you hear the pump when you activate the washer.

If it does work on one side but not the other, we know it is not a fuse and not the pump. In that case you would need to check the tubing for any leaks etc. First check you want to do, is to see if you get water to the nozzles. Remove the tubing on the nozzle and see if you now get water coming out. If so, it's your jets.

If you have no water coming out, it could be the pump or the relay under the dash. Check this video for an idea on that.

Since we do not yet know what works and what dose not, the fuse for the windshield washer pump should be #41 (also check #46) in the passenger compartment fuse box. VW Golf Mk5 Fuse Box
