Washer Pump Not Working

On my 2015 Polo GTI the washer pumps both front & rear are not working but the washer jets inset in the bumper appear to be working ok as well as the wipers. Please can someone confirm if this can be a fuse issue and which fuse it will be as I have misplaced the owners manual. Thanks in advance.

There is a sticky at the top of the forum which gives full details of fuses and their locations.

Mine stopped working yesterday and I replaced the fuse and it worked.
My polo is 2012 1.2 and it was fuse 17 for me, 7.5 fuse

I'd think that the fuse number for 6R and 6C will be different as quite a few are it seems.
Just a comment, the headlight pump is a high pressure pump and only covers the headlight washing, the front and rear windscreen use a smaller pump, it is common for both windscreen washers, in future make sure that the washer fluid is of the correct strength/freezing point in colder weather as sludging or even freezing will cause that pump to fail or blow its fuse.
Edit:- fuse SC23 7.5Amp Brown ATO type might be for the pump on 6C.
Another edit:- middle row at the right hand end of that row.
