95 Transport - Washer Fluid Pump

The front washer fluid pump seems to have burnt out on me. Rear works fine. When I press on "wash" for the front, the wipers move, but no fluid comes out, and the pump doesn't make any sound.

Question:
Is there a separate fuse for the front wash pump?
If not, then I think I need a new wash pump.

Does anyone know the part number for the pump? It looks like it would be easy to replace - anyone have an opinion on this, I know sometimes looks can be deceiving...

Thanks!

Testing- Washer Fluid Pump

Exchange the connectors for the pumps. If you then get water on the front, when flushing the back, you know the pump is defective.

Re: 95 Transport - Washer Fluid Pump

I'd like that too....Problem is the 2 plugs are dissimilar and will not connect to wrong pump..so a pair a small wires can be used to feed 12v direct to pump for a test.
Pump can suffer from "wiper syndrome"..related to faulty printed circuit board part of wiper motor...

To feed 12v direct to pump for a test, do you mean direct from the battery + to one side, and battery - to the other?

I hope it isn't the circuity board, I just changed it last year and it was a major pain in the @$$!

Thanks!

Indeed, 12v from the battery supply to the pump motor. Direction of rotation changes with change of polarity. If board new, I'd bet for the pump.

There may be a fuse, but either way, you should be able to go to the junkyard and get a pump for five dollars. You could also try cleaning the elctrical connections to the pump.
