Also I was wondering if any people were having trouble with their CEL. Could it be the 02 sensor? Thanks
Is the pump working? Does it buzz when you press the button. It may be shot, or just clogged. Sometimes "gunk" gets into the screen. Also, the connectors to the pump, going into the reservoir could simply be oxydized -- might try cleaning them first.

Of course, I have a brand new washer pump in my trunk -- still in the box -- from where I kept pulling back on the stalk (mist function) thinking it was the wash function. When I figured it out, boy, did I feel foolish. Anyhoo, the pump is relatively inexpensive. They have them at Autozone for about five bucks. I'm sorry, but, I don't understand the term "CEL" -- can't help you there.
