Default Wiper washer not activating

Hi guys,
Mu wiper washer is not activating when pulling back on the wiper stalk. I have removed and cleaned the filter and tested the wiper motor itself plus a spare I have and they are fine. Wipers work and from what I can see the wiper and washer pump share the same fuse. I would say it is not making contact in the stalk, can anyone advise if this can be easily fixed or is it a new stalk? Before I start pulling it apart.
Cheers
Craig

The B-Series stalks are known for failing so it is possible your AU one has failed or one of the internal wires is broken in the column. Do the wipers work when you rotate the stalk?

Yeah the wiper work fine when depressing the stalk, just not the pump, will have to pull the stalk apart and see if I can see anything. I have manually checked the pump and it does work.
