My '95 wagon refuses to spray any fluid. The front nozzles work just fine. I have tried clearing the rear nozzle out with a pin... still nothing. Absolutely nothing works. I'd love to get this stupid thing working. Any ideas?

swap the tube from the upper washer pump, the rear, to the lower washer pump, the front, on the tank. iof the rear squirts when you activate the front washer control, then it is the pump mounted in the tank under the hood.

What if that's not it?

then the tube is disconnected where it jumps from the body of the car to the hatch. just a guess.

 

 

the pump is bad , check it. that is the weak point.

 

Yeah, so... the pump is definitely whirring and the hose in the front is connected. When I hit it, I don't see any fluid dripping, either. If the hose is clogged somewhere, how could I clear it out? I've thought about draining all the fluid from the container and pumping sea foam through it or something. Good idea or bad idea?

No you have enough fluid in the tank? I find when it's too low the front will still work (pump longer in tank) but the rear will not.

 

Now since you made this thread I hate this rear washer.. I prefer the spray to be from top to bottom not bottom spraying up.

It's completely full. I just want it to work this winter so I can cut the ice with the fluid a bit better.

hmm well try what nipper said.. the longest I've had to wait when i first got the car was about 10 secs to purge the line of air.
