If you polish the rear window water will just bead off it, and you won't need the washer :homer:

Mine does this every week or so, Just use a pin on the rear washer jet and ussally unblocks it !!

Mine's been nackered since the day i bought it. My mate said to me it's probably the motor (as i can't hear it doing anything).

what i did to unblock mine because it was so badly blocked that a pin didn't work. So i got an old bicycle pump and ripped the hose off from the nipple then took the pipe off the washer jet clamped it with a cable tie and bob's your uncle blockage cleared

Hope this helps

A pin up the hole sorted this for me, sprayed like a bird patching an orgasm

With regards to mine, it was the motor. Some guy had replaced the standard one for one which only did the front windows, the rear pipe was disconnected. I sourced an original one and refitted that

i had a problem with the pump also. replaced it and it was fine.

ive had the rear one block on my girlfriends starlet. was all gunged up. used compressed air to clear it and then just kept running the rear washer jet pump to the rear with no jet on it to clear the rest of the gunge. didnt take too long to get nice and clear again
