I had similar problem on a '99 Fiat Ducato, I traced it to a corroded terminal on the little pump motor which on mine is on the bottom of the wash water container. It could also be a faulty switch or bad contacts at the steering column, not so easy to get at. Hope this is of some help.

Not too difficult to get out, can't remember how it was fixed in. I'll have a look tomorrow and get back to you.

If the pump is working it's more likely a blockage.

Oh when you said it was buzzing I understood that meant it was working. They fail regularly, the pins corrode. It's behind the bumper. Easiest accessed by taking out the headlamp or from underneath.
