'05 TL wiper fluid problem

The wipers are working, but there's no fluid coming out. My wife let it run out & I just added some.
It's cold in the north east right now, so I'm wondering if something is frozen (even after the cars been warmed up for 30 minutes?) or a fuse is blown. I'm looking at the interior fuse diagram & I cannot tell if it's spot#20 IG WASHER or #11 IGWIPER that I should replace? The fuses look ok but maybe they're bad?

What does "IG" stand for? It's on the this diagram. Anyway, thanks in advance

#20 would the one I'd check. Supposedly the auto dimming rear view mirror is on the same fuse as well as the power mirrors. I'm thinking IG stands for ignition. As in it's powered when the ignition is on. Just a guess on that.

Do you hear any noise when activating the windshield washers?

^^^^ + 1. You should be hearing the winshield washer pump whether ther is fluid in the reservoir or not. Otherwise review this thread: https://acurazine.com/forums/problem...roblem-804685/

Seems like holding the stalk for 1-2 mins magically restarts the pump
