Exclamation Help, bumper washers not working ??!!

Hi all, I've just noticed my bumper washer jets are not working. They do not come out at all, and there is no sign of water behind the bumper.
Anyone know of maybe a quick fix before I take it to a Mazda dealer?

I have checked the connection under the bonnet.



Thanks

I'm not sure about the UK cars, but here in Canada, the washers only activate every fifth time you use the windshield washer, and only if the headlights are on.

Where did you get the mesh cover for the oil coolers?
Did you have the bumper cover off to install them?
The supply hoses are easy to pinch off when the nose is re-installed.

Does that mean I have to makes holes for these washers if I were to get a front bodykit?
