    Hey all, first time posting here, just been lurking a while.
    I decided to get around to fiddling with the non-working washer fluid today. First thing I saw was a wire broken on the level sensor, flush with the connector. (see image below) Can those connectors be repaired somehow?

    But beyond that found that the pump was not doing anything either. I checked for voltage at that connector while someone held the switch inside, but nothing. I then checked the fuse (which is fine) but I also found no voltage there. All other functions of the stalk inside work fine.

    So, does the level sensor need to be valid for it to work, or is the gremlin somewhere else?
    For reference - 2013 Crewmax 5.7L FFV

    I usually scrounge around the parts yard for electrical connectors. Cut off the harness with enough wiring attached to solder and heat shrink onto your vehicle.

    I bet that harness is used on other Toyota washer pumps. Just may take a little searching.

    I don't believe the level sensor would have any impact on the operation of the system
