Default Headlight washers dont work.

Well they didnt work when I get it, I turn on the headlights and then hold the winshield washer for like 10 secs and still nothing happens. I did notice a small puddle of winshiled washer fluid on the ground right under the headlight washer. Anyone know what it could be? I dont really need it but just a cool thing to have..

Mine don't work either. They did at one point but now i can't get them to pop up. I think the engine has to be running, because when i tried with the lights on and engine off, only the windshield ones sprayed. When i started the car and tried it, i could hear some kind of motorized pump making noise under the bumper, that i couldn't hear before, but the nozzles still didn't come out of the bumper.

I didn't think mine had them, but I had never tried it with the headlights on... Just tried it and they work... (Motor running + headlights on, wouldn't work without the motor running)
