Default Windshield pump without power

Need your help Gurus!
I took out my ABS module to get it refurbished. As many of you know you must drop the washer fluid tank, and by doing this for some reason I lost power to the windshield pump. I tested it and there is no juice to the pump. Any ideas? I already checked the fuse.
Thanks!

Default There should be two wire harnesses to provide power to the pumps...

one for the windshield, one for the headlamp washers. Check those connections.

Oh, and BTW, I think your headlamps have to be ON for the washers to operate, and you have to hold the washer stalk for several seconds (while the windshield is getting a heavy does) before the headlamp washers engage.

I've done that.
Got power to the headlight pump and the level sensor but no power to the windshield pump. Can't understand why the harness to the pump has lost power.
