Windshield washer not working
I have a 2017 F350 dually and the windshield washer has stopped working. I see nothing wrong with the hoses, so suspect either the pump or the circuit. Is there a fuse that controls the washer pump? If so, where is it located? If it is the pump, how difficult to source a replacement? Can I just replace the pump, or is the reservoir and pump a complete unit? Anyway, any suggestions on how to troubleshoot or replace the pump (if it turns out to actually be the pump) would be appreciated.

My washer stopped working a few months ago. It was likely from not using it. I simply pushed and held the button for a few seconds and after a few attempts, fluid started spraying out.
As above, you should hear if the pump is working, if you don't then pump is likely busted.

For many of y'all, this could be a real issue, but in AZ, not too likely, well, not at our elevation...but it is a good point...just not likely in this case.

I tried pushing the washer button and feel nothing. Can anyone comment on how difficult it will be to get to the reservoir and pump to replace the pump? It seems there might be quite a bit to have to remove to gain access to remove/replace.
