Rear Wash Meet Blocked?

[Matt Haigh]

My rear washer not working, I can hear the pump turnng for rear wash but nothing coming out. Has anyone ever had a jet blocked? Mine is the type with the jet as part of the central high level rear light.

Yes the jet in the rear can get blocked particularly if its not used that often . Try sticking a small pin into the hole to see if this clears it .  If it doesn't youll have to check the pump , just because you can hear it , doesn't mean to say its pumping water through . Remove the outlet pipe from the pump and see if water squirts out when you press the wash wipe . You may have sludge in the bottle or it may be the impellor stuck , or broken . Not the end of the world they are quite inexpensive .
