Default HELP PLEASE! Fiesta washer motor problem!

I've just bought a 2003 fiesta Zetec 1.4 diesel for Mrs Roo.

She came with a few niggles (the fiesta not Mrs Roo) which included the front washer jets not working.

The rear washer jets work fine and on this little fiesta it is the same pump for both the rear and front washer jets, ie the pump works in reverse.

I've just removed the pump incase there was a blockage of some sort and tried it on a 9v battery (closest I could get to 12v at short notice).

The pump works fine both ways which rules the pump out.

Now having it connected electrically but with no water pipes connected I am still hearing it whizz away when the rear washer switch is pressed, but nothing with the front.

I'm now trying to eliminate the front washer switch on the end of the wiper stalk inside the car but need to know which wire is for the front washer motor, and am looking for a wiring diagram.

Could anybody point me towards a good site for ford wiring diagrams?
Or even better can anybody tell me the wire I need in the multiplug on the back of the wiper stalk?

Thanks in advance, and this is my first post so a big hello to everybody.
