headlight washers
I have check voltage at the pump and it is not getting any juice. window washers work fine. I have a new headlight pump but no use to change it if no juice coming to it. Anyone have this issue and resolved it? bently does not show any diagram of wiring that I could find but I could of missed it. thanks guys

Stoopid question, but are your headlights on when you try the washers?
They only spray when the headlights are on and you actuate the windshield washer. If you do have the headlights on, then the relay that is actuated when the headlights are turned on may be the culprit.

boy that is a smart question.. I guess I missed that one and they work
I changed the pump out and guess what, they work when the lights are on.. I never knew the lights had to be on. thanks Ski you the man.. Boy do I feel stupid.. this is the firsttime they worked since I had the car.. bad pump after all. Pretty easy to change out. trick is to take the corner marker light off then the pump is right there in the holding tank. pull the pump out and disconect the wires and hose and hook everything to the new pump and push pump back in place. and washers now work.. now everything in my car works..... just like new again....
