Rear window washer

[ohiooutdoors]

I don’t think I ever had to use my rear window washer but tried it and it seems to not be working.

Anyone else experience this?

It’s out of warranty now so if I could fix it on my own that would be ideal.

Make sure your fluid level is full for starters.....

Hi Nathan. Can you send us a DM with your VIN and dealership info? I can look into this for you.

On a public forum, nothing is a given. If you don't state outright what you have checked, one can only assume you've checked nothing. Are you operating it correctly? Have you tried engaging it longer (lines may be empty), can you hear the pump? Do the front washers work?

My question was has anyone had this happen not if I were capable of pushing a dongle.

Windshield works fine when dongle is pushed for rear nothing comes out.

I have not experienced this. Best of luck to you.

Do you hear the pump running when you press the switch for the rear washer?

Hmmm. Could be a clog in the line somewhere or at the nozzle. Have you looked at the nozzle? Maybe a mud dauber stuffed some gunk in there, or you got some wax on it.

I’ll have to check it.
I used it maybe once since I got it back in 2021.

I’ve noticed if I don’t use mine for a few days, maybe a week or so, it takes longer to start spraying. I don’t know if that’s normal or not. But I guess it either evaporates on the lines or leaks out.
