It's probably attached to the bottom or side of the washer reservoir. You'll probably have to remove the reservoir to get at it. Once you can see it, it should be clear enough how to replace it. Sorry if this is a bit vague, but you're not exactly giving us a whole lot to go on.;)

Same thing happened to me on a polo, it was the washer motor on the back got it replaced and it still failed to work. All fuses where checked too but seemed to be in working order I dont know what else to do.

please when asking questions about your motor give us a chance and list the make model and year of the vehicle. if you want clairvoyants go to the paranormal forum

Where it is located depends on what type and model of car you have.

Trace the hose(s) back from the bonnet outlets and you should find it easily.

Maybe the hose(s) are kinked/blocked/cut/punctured?

I've replaced motors on Renaults and Volvos before. The motors I've seen just sat into the washer fluid reservoir near the base. They just pulled out by hand, no unscrewing or dismantling required.
