Hello,

Does anyone know where the voltage outputs from that supplies the
front washer motor? I have no voltage output from the output
connector, completely dead. I traced back to the connector before it,
and still nothing. Then it goes into a big harness housing and
continues on. I have checked the fuses but none are labeled for this
function. Unless there is one I dont see, or a fusible link. The
original motor was seized up, this is how I got started on this.
Replacement motor works now (out of car), but nothing is firing it up
when connected. Nothing is wrong with the rear motor, but of course
that is a completely different circuit.. Thanks for any info.

Bill chances are if the motor was seized up the fuse had blown, check all
fuses with a test like, your owners manual should also specify what fuse
controls what circuit.

I am now suspecting there is a thermal fuse that may be bad that is
inserted in the junction block. It says that it is a dealer only
servicable item, which I'm sure is not the case. Will continue to
investigate.

Check fuse 9 in the PDC under the hood to see if it is blown. If the fuse
is good you may have a problem with the BCM or the multifuntion switch. A
scan tool would be needed to check the switch and BCM

Fuse # 9 in PDC is empty, unused.

Owners manual states:

" Power windows, power locks, windshield wipers, starter relay, and
engine relay are fused with self resetting fuses that are only
servicable by an authorized dealer".

How hard is it to get to the one that controls the washer pump voltage
outut.? I've seen them before, but cant seem to locate this one in the
'96 Gd Caravan. They are usually a shiny metal color, silver or gold
tint to them, and usually inserted in the junction block, but none
here.  Is there a secret spot for this one that is concealed?

Thanks,

Bill
