C8 windshield washer pump failure.

I have a 2021 C8. The windshield washer pump does not pump. What is the best way to get to the pump so I can replace it myself?

Find it at a discount online Chevy parts department or perhaps Rock Auto.

Not under extended warranty? I don't think that I have ever used mine

Could not find any video/information about replacement of the windshield washer pump.
I did find the diagram of it's location.
The part number for the pump is 13508971 and is number 12 on the diagram. It appears the pump is located either deep down the side or under the reservoir.
I looked at mine and could not see the pump or how the reservoir is attached. I tried following the hose, number 17, but could not see it. Using the diagram it looks like it may just be pushed into the grommet, number 10 on the diagram.
You will need to remove the panels to access where the reservoir is located and go from there. You may even have to remove the front trunk tub to gain access.
Sorry could not be of further assistance.
