I have a 2011 Rogue SV AWD that the front windshield washer stopped working. The rear washer works fine but the front does not work at all. About 2 weeks ago I had the same problem. I expected the washer pump had failed and replaced that with a new OEM part. Plugged the new pump in connected the hoses and ran like a champ for 2 weeks. Now I have the same problem again. No front washer but back works fine. I unplugged the connector at the pump and measured the voltage. I had +12VDC on the rear and +10VDC on the front function. Both of these measurements lasted for a few seconds tops and then tapered down. All the wiper functions work normal. The circuit seems pretty simple with ignition power thru the 10 amp fuse thru the combo switch thru the BCM and to the pump. I am ready to replace the combination switch in the column. Has anyone else seen similar problems... any solutions. Thanks

10 vdc on the front pump, its a good indication you have a bad circuit, check your connector, do tug and wiggle sometimes they are corroded you cant even see it or measure voltage 6 to 12in back and dont forget the ground

Had the same problem a month or so ago, dealership tracked it down to the actual windshield wiper/washer lever on the steering column. Replaced it and all is well again. Hope this help a bit.
