Sigh.............

SOME idea of the car, model, and year would help us?

It's probably the pump. It doesn't get much use, so it jams/seizes.

You could try removing it, cleaning it and back-flushing?

And while it's out, check it's getting a supply...circuit tester or multimeter.

Clicking noise will be the timer unit operating.

No water usually means pump is seized or dead

If you are lucky remove pump and try to rotate impeller...............
