Default Windshield washer intermittent problem

Im guessing the sub zero temps in Co right now is the problem…but for the last few days my fluid doesn’t spray- then after some time it starts to work again. I put new “de-icer” fluid in it but that didnt fix it. Maybe it still freezes?

Any thoughts appreciated.

There is a known issue with the check valve in the washer lines and most people that have had issues just drill a hole through the check valve to eliminate the problem. There are many threads here about this. Below is one.
