Windshield Washer Wiper Fluid Pump Fuse

Windshield Washer Wiper Fluid Pump Fuse
I searched and read through nearly 20 posts related to this, but found no answers. My 2007 rdx tech is not squirting. Nothing comes out when i try to engage the windshield washer fluid.
So far:
1. Did not work, so I checked the reservoir and it seemed empty. So I filled it up with orange washer fluid that is good to -25 F.
2. Searched for more answers, saw some info about checking the fuse. I checked the manual pages 399-402 I see the fuse diagram, but see no fuse for washer fluid or anything related to it. My wipers work just fine. Just issue with washer fluid.
Anyone know which fuse it is for the washer fluid/ washer fluid pump?
Thank you

Might be one of those fuses that are under the hood. I know the rear defroster fuse is in that little box.

Fuse #38 (30A) in the underdash fuse/relay box powers both the windshield wiper motor and the washer motor, so if your wipers operate, then fuse #38 is good.
The washer motor supplies both the front and rear washers, so if the rear washer works, then you know the motor is working.
Otherwise, see if you can hear the washer motor operate while someone holds the switch for you, but don't do this with the hood raised as the wipers may hit the hood. If the washer motor is operating, then you probably have a frozen line or frozen nozzles.
The other possibility is that a frozen blockage caused one of the line connections to separate under motor pressure and the fluid is being dumped somewhere at the separation. If that's the case, you can probably snap the connection back together.
If you can't get the car into a warm garage, try heating the nozzles, lines, etc. with a hair dryer.

I have the same problem with my 04 TL. Can't hear the pump operating. Wipers work. Looked at my manual, getting to the pump is a PIA. Have to remove the inner fender. Haven't had time to tackle the project yet as the weather here in CO has been rough the last couple of weeks.
