I have a note in my journal that the washer pump on my 78 1500 was going
out. Don't have a mention of repairing it but I think I did and it's
working now. I agree about attempting repair, if it's not working anyway.
Spitbits lists one for the 1500 at $9.99.

Subject: [Spits] Windshield washer pump/switch
Hello,
The windshield washer pump (built into the wiper switch) in my MK IV
has finally crapped out. It worked perfectly since 1972, and today it
started dribbling water onto the floor. The usual vendors seem to
sell a rather expensive replacement that does not match the original
very well. Does anybody know if the originals are repairable? I am
not too optimistic, since it looks like a welded-together plastic
assembly that cannot be opened...
Thanks,
Doug Braun
'72 Spit
