Electrical issues-windshield washer mister

[Chevaru]

Here goes...The windshield wiper mister motor for the front wipers doesn't work...checked fuses...all good...replaced pump motor on washer reservoir...still nothing...checked for power at the motor connection on the reservoir...it's hot...So it must be in the switch in the wiper paddle on the steering column...right? How do I check it? Do I tear apart the steering column or is there anyway I can check the miles and miles of wires behind the dash to find the problem...or, horrors of horrors, take it to a Subaru dealer?
By the way, I did switch the washer nozzle hoses from the back unit to the front so I can at least get fluid on the front windshield. Living in N.C. Mountains and since we have already have had a foot of snow this season (of course, nothing compared to those getting hammered on the West Coast, having the wipers work correctly is a big-time safety issue.

Does the pump make any noises when you use the switch? If not I would say the switch since you replaced everyting else already.

Has to be the switch on the control stalk. If you dismantle the steering column you should be able to vampire tap into the wires - not what I'd recommend doing but...

One other option is to hook up another switch direct to the washer pump motor and see if its working that way.

Thanks for the responses. Since the pump for the rear mister works...I though about vampiring the front pump from it. Sound feasible?

[Huffer]

You could try that...but you'd be running two pumps off one switch, not sure how long that'll last?
