Hey guys,
I refilled my washer fluid reservoir today and it was almost empty. I tested it by washing the windshield and it worked fine. But when I turned the knob backward to spray washer fluid on the back window, all I got was the wiper screeching across the dry rear wiindow!
I know it was working two months ago, but seemed to be a very weak spray and I started to wonder if something might be wrong with it. But now I've got the tank filled with washer fluid and all Ihear is the humming sound of a motor when I twist the knob.
I'm thinking that one of the following is theissue-
Spray nozzle clogged and I can't reach it through the tiny hole in the spoiler at the top of the liftgate. I did take a soft, long brush today and sprayed with the water hose hoping it would unclog if there was an issue, but no luck. I don't like to hold the wash button more than 10 seconds, then release and let it rest for a few minutes before trying again. I probably tried as many as 10 times over the course of a few hours and nothing!
So I'm wondering if there is something wrong where the hose supplying the rear washer fluid has become damaged along the way back to the rear OR maybe where the line connects to the washer fluid reservoir?
Any ideas? Has anyone has the same problem?
