There's a few things you might want to check. First, check to make sure the washer fluid reservoir is completely (assuming you hadn't already done that). After you are certain the reservoir is full, look for any possible leaks...either the reservoir or the hoses going from the tank to the windshield. If the tank and hoses are intact, turn on your windshield wipers...then try running the pump. If no washer fluid comes out, and for this you might need another person to assist you, try running the pump again...listening to make sure the pump is in fact running. If the pump does run but still no fluid comes out, inspect all of the hoses as well as all of the outlets where the fluid sprays the windshield...it is possible that the outlets may be plugged. Some common reasons for the outlets to be plugged...debris, dirt/mud, and/or wax (has anyone recently waxed your Freightliner?). Just to be sure, using a small needle or even a wire, ensure each outlet is cleared and not obstructed with anything. After that, try running the pump again. If no luck, try removing the hoses going from the tank to the windshield. Once removed, using something like a wire coat hanger, clear each hose for any possible obstruction. Reattach hoses and try running pump again. If still no luck, I would guess the problem might be located with the washer pump itself. Before opting to replace the pump, if you believe that is the problem and the pump just doesn't operate, check all fuses and inspect any/all wiring connections.
the washer pump is located in the bottom of the washer fluid bottle , so where you top up the washer fluid that is where you need to get to they are usually accessed by removing the wheel and inner wheel arch liner then the pump can be pulled from the fluid bottle
Look for the fuse box under the dashboard, and look at the diagram on the cover for the proper location of the fuse, and use a plier (if you dont have fuse puller (small plastic one)), and gentle hold the fuse and pull it out carefully.
The washer pump is located at the bottom of the fluid tank. On a '96 or '97 it's on the right (passenger side) under the inner fender liner. Remove the Right front wheel. Remove the lower engine cover. You should be able to get the pump out. If it's corroded fast, then you'll have to remove the inner fender liner (lots of clips will break) and remove the entire tank assembly.
Sounds like pump alright Unbolt tank from car and pump should be screwed to bottom of tank Another way is fit a universal inline washer pump Up to you whether you want to keep your car original
