HELP! 2005 C230K Windsheild Washer prob!....

Just bought a 2005 C230K and I'm not getting anything out of the washer nozzles. Pump is good, hooked it up to 12V and runs like a champ. The rest of the turn signal/wiper switch works, just no spray. Fluid is topped. Any relays in between, or do you think the "push" part of the column switch is bad?

Even after I press the switch in and hold it the wipers start to go, just dry as a bone. Pump is not running while pressing switch, it's not getting power when it should.

this may sound stupid but, are you pushing the switch all the way in? it has two steps, first step bumps wipers, second step sprays washer fluid.

Unfortunately yes. Pushing it in all the way. I did disconnect the battery last week, don't see how that would effect it.

Do you know if they replaced the entire wiper/turn signal switch, I think it is called a combination switch?
