2004 Explorer Limited
We have a 2014 explorer that isn't a daily driver. Recently drove it and found out the wipers both front and rear along with the washers both front and rear do not work. Checked the fuses and all were good so assumed since it is both washer and wipers the controller (stalk on steering column) was bad. Just replaced it and that didn't fix the issue. Any ideas on what to check next?

Your profile shows that you have a 2004 Limited. In a previous post you inquired about a 2015 Explorer with driver side window issues. Now you mentioned you have a 2014 Explorer. Which one(s) do you have? Thanks.
Can you hear the pump working in the washer reservoir?

Put the wrong year on the 2015. I have 2, a 2004 and the 2014. 2004 is on my profile.
No I can not hear the pump working.

Sounds like the washer pump isn't working. It's either bad or lacking electrical power. You could test the wiring to it to see if they are supplying power.

Ok will try that as well. Weird that the washer pump would control whether the wipers turned on or not. Silly system. Thanks!

I don't know if there is a connection between the the two but when you go to use the washers don't the wipers come on as well?
