I would use a circuit tester to test for power at your washer pump, if it has power and not engaging the motor is bad and you would need a new windshield washer pump, if it has power and the motor is engaging and nothing is coming out then your washer fluid is empty or the washer nozzles are clogged up, if you have no power at the pump check the fuse that powers that circuit and replace fuse if faulty.

2007 Chevy equinox windshield wiper fluid goes to the back window when I push the front windshield wiper, but



"If the windshield wiper fluid of your Chevy Equinox ends up on the rear window instead of the windshield, there could be several possible causes:

Damaged or incorrectly connected windshield wiper fluid tube: The tube that carries the windshield wiper fluid from the reservoir to the base of the front windshield wiper may be damaged or not connected properly, causing the fluid to leak elsewhere.

Clogged windshield wiper fluid outlet: The outlet of the windshield wiper fluid on the base of the front windshield wiper may be clogged with dirt or debris, causing the fluid to flow onto another part of the car, such as the rear window.

Windshield wiper system issues: There may be a problem with the windshield wiper system of your Chevy Equinox that causes the fluid to leak onto other parts of the car instead of the windshield."

2001 Lincoln Town car ...wipers at times are slow on high and regular speeds and even stop working altogether.Have new battery 12/17 and wiper mot3/18. Battery is 650cca and on third motor in 1.5 years....

Have a qualified repair shop check it out . Electronic module involved , WCM - wiper control module . May have code's stored . You have no clue as to how it works.

The windshield wipers are controlled by the wiper control module and the driver-operated multi-function switch on the steering column, with the ignition switch in RUN or ACC position.
There are four modes of wiper operation: OFF position, the wipers move to and stay in the park position; Interval position, the wiper control module causes the wipers to cycle, separated by pauses, pause time length being determined by switch location; LO position, the wipers will operate at low speed continuously; HI position, the wipers will operate at high speed continuously.
The windshield washers are controlled by pressing inward on the wiper switch end of the multi-function switch. The washers will operate as long as the switch is depressed. If the wipers are in the OFF or Interval operating mode, the wipers will begin in LO speed and the washer pump will pump fluid from the reservoir to the nozzles. When the switch is released, the wipers will complete three cycles and then return to their previous setting. In LO or HI mode, no change in wiper operation will occur during washer operation.
The washer fluid level sensor is in the windshield washer reservoir (17618) and is monitored by the hybrid electronic instrument cluster (HEC) and displays a WASHER message when the fluid level is low. The washer fluid level sensor and windshield washer reservoir are replaced as an assembly.

Where to find the window wiper motor? How to know if it is bad and if replacing it will fix my wiper fluid problem in my 85 el camino. wipers work fine but no spray does not. maybe fuse?

If I remember correctly, your wiper motor is mounted to the firewall, likely on the drivers side. You can locate it easily by turning the key on and turning on the wipers. Just listen to the motor and follow the sound. To see what's going on with the washer portion, you need to carefully remove the plastic cover.
If you have a circuit board inside, be careful not to break it. You need to look at the pump and pump actuator to see what's working or not. (check for voltage and mechanical operation)
To fix it, you can sometimes get a pump rebuild kit but if the electrical part isn't functioning, unless you are trying to keep the car absolutely stock, there are aftermarket external pumps you can add on, using a push button on the dash. It's an easy install and far cheaper than replacing the entire wiper motor assembly. Another option is to go to a scrapyard and find a fluid reservoir from a Chrysler or any other car that uses a pump on the reservoir. Find one that fits reasonably well in your engine compartment and just attach the hoses to your system. Then all you need is a wire from a power source to the push button, then to the pump, and a ground for the pump housing.
