The windshield washer fluid in my 1998 Civic will not work. I push the lever
to dispense the fluid but nothing happens, just like the bottle is dry. Even
after I filled it up, same thing...

What usually causes this? It can't be too complicated...

Thanks,

Try using a needle to clean out the nozzles.

And also make sure the there are no leaks in the hoses under the hood. Mine
were bitten by a squirrel and they were leaking so no water reached the
nozzles. I replaced the nozzles and everything went back to normal.

Meant to say "replaced the hoses and everything went back to normal."
