Windshield Washer Fluid Not Working
Greetings! I have a 2005 F-250 6.0 Powerstroke. I have been searching online and haven't been able to find out my answer.
My washer fluid pump is not working, it was a few weeks ago but now it is broken. The Owner's Manual only has the listing fuse 33 for "cluster, 4x4, wipers". It looks like some of the older models have an actual fuse for the "washer fluid pump". I checked fuse 33 under the dash and it is ok. What fuse controls the washer fluid pump?
The pump does not make noise when activated, so I'm starting at the fuse but I don't know what the hell is going on.
Can somebody please help?

The guy that posted the thread below shows a picture identifying the fuses, but I don't see one for the fluid pump. May be on the wiper fuse?

I'm saving that link! Thanks!
I checked fuse 33 under the dash and it is good. I also just took a peek at 01-30A Wipers under the hood and it looks fine, it doesn't look burnt up or anything. This is why I'm confused?

It works now
I have no idea what happened but the pump works now. I didn't do anything to the truck and it works on a cold snowy morning.
I did rustle around under the dash last night to find the factory set code for my truck so maybe it is just a wiring issue.

I dealt with this exact problem on my 04 this winter. It seems the pump is controlled through the wiper motor, that is why I could not find a fuse either. Disassembled the wiper motor cleaned the contacts has worked flawlessly ever since. This may or may not be your issue.

My pump does not make any noise either when I activate it, so just a clogged line could prevent pump making any noise?
