First thing to check are the vacuum lines from the vacuum pump through the engine compartment to the fire wall. There is usually a split in the hose and it is normally near the "tee" connector that connects the vacuum pump/cruise actuator/brake pedal.

what i found out when mine stopped working was that the vacuum hose at the actuator side was dry cracked.
replaced it for a new piece of hose and now it is working fine:)

you can use standard rubber tubing for washer fluid hoses. just get the right diameter.
just be careful not to pull on the hose too much at the T, as you can disconnect it inside the truck.

Mark,
Here's a post that I posted a while back for things to check if you check all the vacuum lines and still have trouble. Good luck.
