Default Windshield Wiper Fluid Won't Come Out

Hi All,

I have an 01 T&C. I can not get any windshield wiper fluid to come out onto the windshield. I thought it was simply out of fluid so I went to top it off and it was already still pretty full. I then noticed that when I push in on the blinker to get fluid to come out, I hear no noise, like the motor isn't even working at all. I read where one motor supplies the front and the back for wiper fluid but the back works just fine so I'm really confused. Is there a seperate fuse for the front versus the back or is there something else I can check myself before having the local garage check it out? The cap was closed upon inspection so I doubt something got in there to plug it op.
Thanks in advance for the advice.

go by the waster fluid jub and listen for the motor when some one presses on the stalk. The u can do one of 2 things add power to one of the pins for it and see if it works or not then get back to us.

I do not hear anything when pressing on the stalk.
Sorry if this is a stupid question but how do I had power to one of the pins? I've never heard of this before.

u get a test light and unplug the connector for the motor then u get some one to press the stalk if it lights up then u got power to the motor more then likely need a motor after that.

Just an update...The pump had gone out. Part was $70 (bought the whole pump and not just the add-on kit) and took 1/2 hour. I can see out my windshield again!

We have same problem but put in a new motor and it only runs by switching the wire for the rear wash? What needs to be done with the wiring?
Thanks

Default Front washer will not Spray Motor Works

We have a 2002 Town & Country. The front washer will not spray, changed the motor. Still does not work. Only works when switching the wire from the rear washer. What should we look at next or what can we do?

Determine if you're losing power or ground at the pump connector. At that point it could be a broken wire from the pump to the fuse box(IPM) or the Front Control Module isn't truning on the ground when commanded.

A long shot - disconnect the negative battery cable 5 minutes to reset the controlling data bus.
