Was it empty when u filled it? If not you need to purge the whole lot and refill with the better stuff. I know this from experience

Work at a Ford dealer and we use a mix of about 3/4 water and 1/4 washer fluid, with it being in the single digits this week in Northeast Ohio I have countless people come in saying their washers don't work. Needless to say that they are frozen. Some hot water warms it up, even got tipped $10 to unfreeze it, and put 100% washer fluid in.

I was running into the same issue. At times, I would have to hold the button for 8 or 10 seconds before fluid presented itself. It is an issue with these units. Took it to the dealership, and they found a couple vehicles on their lot that immitated the same problem. Of course, Ford had no knowledge of any problems existing like that. They solved the issue by installing a one way check valve that is used in the front 4WD assembly. It works flawless. 2 years have passed and never had another issue.
