| ok
quick easy test, take the washer tank off your wrecked wagon and plug it's washer pumps with the wires from your new wagon and see if they work. if they do then you know its the pumps on the new wagon if they don't then you know it's wires or bad relay/ fuses
the pumps can and do fail. Replaced the ones on my 91 a year before it was written off | |

| Please note that this test is only effective if you know for sure that the wrecked wagons pump was not damaged in your accident AND that it worked prior to accident.Otherwise carry on as Pat has stated.  |

| They worked front and rear when I had it, make sure hoses aren't clogged on new one. | |

| My 1A2's front pump has been out for over a year, rear works fine though. No power was getting to the pump at all. The solution: carry a spray bottle of washer fluid in car at all times  | |

Oooh. This is serious. I would deem this new RM totalled as well now and go shop for a third. | |

| Dun Dun Duuuuun! Crisis averted, thanks to the efforts of DROLDS2U superhero extrodinaire and his faithful side kick Total Roadie, the whale that lives out of the sea.  Man that was my favorite segment of who's line is it anyway; Superheros. Glad it was an easy fix for ya, with out the added cost of new parts. If only all repairs could be so easy and cost effective 'sigh'. | |
