For 1990-2009 cars

The body control module (BCM) monitors the front washer motor circuit 228. When a front windshield wash is requested for more than 2 minutes, circuit 228 at battery voltage, the BCM will turn OFF the front wiper motor if the front wiper is NOT requested by the wiper switch.

Power for the front washer motor, and the rear washer motor when equipped, is supplied through the front wiper fuse and washer switch. Grounding for the front washer motor is through the circuit 550 or through the OFF position of the rear washer motor switch, when equipped.
