It's the rain sensor! Unless you replaced your windshield with another rainsensing windshield, you'll need the old rain sensor pried off the discarded windshield!
It's because the washer circuit (and delayed wiper circuit) run through the rain sensing circuit! Re-connecting the rainsensor (even though it will not work for sensing rain) will complete the circuit and restore your windshield washers!
(I had this exact problem and solution on my 96 ETC.)
Possibly freezing. Make sure you are using Windshield Washer Fluid and not water.
We have a 2002 S-80. The headlight wipers work automatically when you use your windshield washer fluid to wash your windshield.
sounds more like the wiper switch needs replacing
Most likely the little pump in the washer fluid tank is bad. These are fairly cheap and easy to replace.
washers not working on peugeot 307,
try replacing the windshield wiper moter, and check for damaged wireing that could be causeing a short and blowing fuses.
Type your answer here... front windsheild washers are not working on my 2001 town and country van the wipers are working and back washer is working
why don't the windshild wipers work on 1995 ford countours. their is no power to fuse box or wiper motor.
The front and rear windshield washers operate independently of each other. They are two completely separate units. Check your fuse box first to look for a blown fuse. If not, the pump is at the bottom of the windshield washer fluid container located in the front corner of the engine compartment.
If the windshield wipers are not working on a 1990 Chevy Lumina, the problem could be with the wiper motor, the wiper motor relay, or a fuse. The least expensive fix to this problem will be replacing the fuse if it is blown.
Loose connection, intermittent short.
Sounds like some joker has filled your fluid bottle with urine. Drain it off and refill with clean water but if the pump has been corroded it will need replacing.
