Default Electrical Wiring to front washer pump not working

Hi, We have 2002 T&C, replaced motor pump for front washer. We switched the wire from rear washer and front works using the rear washer button. We know it's the wiring we think? What can we do to remedy the problem and get in back to working right? Thanks!

I'm guessing you swapped connectors not "a wire" correct?

Pin #1 (brown wire) is the ground from the Front Control Module (FCM). A switched ground not constant ground
Pin #2 (orange/pink wire) is power from the Integrated Power Module (IPM).

Yes, we swapped connector's. Can a connector be replaced? We think it is a wire at the connector at the front pump since switching produced power and it worked using the rear wash button. Or could it be further down the wiring? How do do you check this? With a meter?

We do not know if we are missing power or ground.

Yes, connectors can be replaced. Is it the connector? Wiggle it. Does the pump turn on? Gently tug on the wires at back of the plug. Do they pull out? If you have two no answers it's not the plug.

You'll need a meter to check the wiring. $15 at Walmart, Sears, Rad Shack, many auto parts stores. Check for power and ground at the pins stated above. If you're missing one or the other you'll have to check wire continuity from the IPM to the pump using the resistance (ohms) function. It won't be a fuse. One fuse safes both pumps.
