Windshield wiper problems

[Devious_Tahoe96]

Does anyone or did anyone have problems with the wiper fluid not coming out??? Ther's no leak cuz i have the same amount of fluid from last year. I'll hold the "mist" switch down for about 10 sec. and nothing happens. Anyone have a clue to what it might be???

do you hear the pump working ? you could have a faulty washer pump. does ur rear one work ? they are two different pumps.

Well i have the barn doors so i just have the front wipers. I don't hear anything. If it is faulty, how could yo get to it?? I have a storage box inside the hood, but i can't take it off without breaking it. I took off the 7mm bolt thats on the inside but it doesn't break free.

I believe there is another bolt holding the storage box underneath the fender well....

yeh theres another bold holding it. you get it to it from under the truck. infront of the fender.

Oh wow, didn't know that. So once i remove the storage box, it sould be pretty easy to access the wiper fluid pump right?

should be. i've never done it before. you might even have to pull the washer fluid reservior to get to the pump, but i'm not certain. should be easy though.
