Are your Scorpio washers not heated?
I'd fit the Scorpio ones, although they are likely the same.

Look under the bonnet 'quilt' and you will see wires running to the washer jets if they are heated. IIRC they come on when the heated front screen button is pressed. Try that first. 
Just checked the handbook detail and my memory is correct. HERE

My 2.5td Ultima didn't have heated jets. mind you, it didn't have a heated screen, heated seats or a leather interior, must have been the poorest spec Ultima going  It has all these now though! The wiring for the washer jets was part of the loom used for the heated screen so I'd guess that you'll only get these if you have a heated screen.

Leather was only an option in the earlier Ultimas, although it may have been changed at some point.
Do you mean the front screen wasnt heated the rear is yes?
I dont think the Diesels had heated front screens as standard, my two Diesel Ultimas dont anyway and one has every other option on it.
