drivers side, front, behind the arch lining and bumper.
If you can hear the pump working check the lines. Try disconnecting the pipes from the washer jets and see if water comes out. If not you may have to take pump off and have a good look at it. Quite easy, can be done just by removing the inner arch lining.

Could be something stuck in the pipe somewhere stopping water coming out.

I had same problem.
Disconnected pipe under bonnet feeding sprayers and checked pump. It worked fine.
I then sucked the pipe to sprayers and got a gob full of crap. That was the problem. Shite in pipe.
Just got to get someone to do it for you lol.
