Well, it was raining a few days ago, and I went to use my rear windshield wiper, no problems. Then, yesterday I noticed my rear window was pretty dirty so I decided to use the washer nossle in the back to clean it off, but nothing was coming out when I used the switch. It was working before, but not I have no idea what might have gone wrong. If anybody else has ever had this situation please help me. Thanks.

i had that problem on my 87 celica waaaay back. That means that along the waysomething happened to the tube that comes from the front of the vehicle and carries water to the back. It may be clogged, jammed by a hatch door etc. check the top of your hatch and follow the tube. you may have to open most of your car. Second option would be to disconnect your wter bottle, attach a air compressor to the tube and let it blow everything out on both ends. Might take awhile. Repeat same procedure from both sides, then pump in the water into the tube system and make sure it comes out freely out of 1 end, while you are pouring it/better yet using a water pump from the other.

See that is one of the reaspons why my 6gc is not a hatchback

My rear washer nozzle wasn't working either. I would turn the knob but nothing. So, played around and I solved the problem kinda,

EVERYONE TRY THIS : I squirt the front washers (they work fine) and hold them on and then turn the rear squirt knob at the same time. The rear nozzle squirted for the first time since I have had the car. Just play with it.
