I can't figure it out. Can't find a fuse, or anything that would prevent it from working. Was wondering if you guys had any ideas on what or where to check. It's not my truck, I just drive it, so I can't just take it to the dealer despite my repeated request. Hasn't worked since new, it's frustrating

Unplug the squirter motor at the bottom of the washer bottle, and check for power (use a test light and have someone press the button in the cab at same time). If it has power, it's the squirter motor thats bad. If not, it must be a fuse.
MJ1657 Thanks this. -
they did not pay the extra for windshield washers?
-
Check the connector attaching to the pump motor. If it's the same on my 2016 Pete ,it comes loose sometimes (every time I need it). I push it around and it works for awhile. I heard they put zip ties on it now.

Check washer fluid level.
Check washer fluid pump motor operation while someone else holds the button.
My one had the line come loose, so was operational, just not delivering the fluid. -
The little rubber or plastic lines tend to plug up too.

I've had the motor soft-seize or get stuck...rapping it a time or two lightly with a screwdriver handle sorted it out. We had one T880 in the fleet at my last gig...everyone either loved it or hated it.
