Check the wiring to the washer pump - its on the bottom of the washer bottle, disconnect the connector to the rear washer pump (do them both) and clean up the contacts with sandpaper - you can try swapping the connectors over and see if the front washer connector will power the rear washer, if so the problem is a fuse or the rear washer switch is broken.
Tell me how you get on and I'll advise further.
This way you can prove both pumps work, if the rear pump wont work off the front pump cable then the pump is at fault and needs replacing.

Both the front and back wipers of my 2007 Saturn Vue work, but no fluid comes out, even though it's full, and no sound is heard like it does when out of fluid.

Many possibilities.
Check to see if the electric motor that pumps the washer fluid is working by detaching the hose at the bottom of the washer tank and starting the car & dashboard washing switch ( the multi-switch that controls the washer.)
If you get no fluid squirting out, either the fuse or the washer pump motor is bad.
If it is pumping fluid out there, try hooking a hose to the fluid line and blowing on it to see if fluid will pass through the line, or if it is plugged up ( usually at the nozzle).
If that is clear, perhaps the whole system has lost it's "prime".
Try charging the whole system with water by blowing water from your mouth into the washer lines.
Many cars can lose their "prime" with months or years of dis-use.
God bless your efforts.

Toyota 4runner washer fluid does not come out

Open the hood and listen when some helper operated the "squirters".
You should hear a high-pitch whine that the washer pump makes.
No noise? Bad pump or bad wiring or corrosion at the terminals of the pump.
Noise heard?
Hoses are plugged up.OR the hose fell off the bottle and the bottle is empty.
You can use a small wire from a wire brush to un plug the squirt nozzles on the hood.Use pliers to feed the wire into the nozzles-you may poke your finger(sharp!).
Un plug the hoses that lead to the hood and apply air pressure to the hose from the windshield washer bottle.
Washer fluid is not toxic in small doses.

Winshiled washer does not work

1. ensure that the wash fuse is ok.
2. click the ignition to on but do not start motor. and check for pump noise if not noise then suspect fuse pump, pump connection or washer switch.
3 if you can hear pump. check washer fluid bottle is not empty. check for any dirt in the bottle blocking the pump or pipe.
4 check pipes to washer jets are clear and connected.
5. check washer jets are not blocked, use a wire strand from a wire brush to clear.

is it cold? check that the fluid has not frozen in the system. get the vehicle in the warm and thaw out system once this is down top up with a good windshield antifreeze fluid.

work backwards through the sytem. disconnect water jet pipe and switch on if not fluid. move back to water container see if fluids comes or from there if so then pipes or jets are blocked.

if not pump is defective - blocked or not getting power..

i hope this was useful.

Volvo v50 washer fluid doesn't spray

Hi, their are a couple of common problems here.
but first of all check the following.
can you heat the pump come on when you press the button for the washer, if you cant hear it from in the car open the bonnet and get someone to press the button and listen for the pump if you hear it then you know the pumps working if you dont hear anything then the pump needs replacing.

if neither the front or back windows work and the pumps make no sound for front or back washer then your next stop would be the fuse box, check all the fuses and replace any blown fuses then try the washers.

If how ever you can hear the pump working then the problem is going to be one of 2 things the most common is going to be that the water jets are blocked to unblock them get a small needle and poke into the holes where the water comes out of then try the washer, if it still dont work then the problem is the other end at the washer botlle, you will find the pipe by the pump has gelled up due to the cleaning fluid you put into the washer bottle so what you now need to do is remove the washer bottle and the pumps and give the pipes a good clean out to ensure they are not blocked.

i hope i have given you some things to check

On my 06 equinox the rear window fluid is empty and I cant find how to refil it

The fluid for the rear washer just comes from the front fluid container. If it is not coming out through your rear squirter, try and hold the lever that makes it spray for about 10 seconds. If it is still not working, there may be either a blockage in the lines (if you live in a cold climate it could be frozen), or the line may be broken or disconnected, or the pump that supplies washer fluid to the rear window could be burned out, or the fuse could be blown.

If you activate the rear window washer, do you hear any pumps making any noises? If it is making noises, then the pump works, meaning either the line is frozen, broken, or disconnected.
If you do not hear pump noises, then it is either your fuse for the pump, the pump itself, or perhaps even the switch (which is less likely)

All of these solutions are only going to help if you make sure that the washer fluid container is full :)

Windscreen washers

Fords have a common problem with their washer pumps. for the last 12 years ford have fitted a plastic mesh over the inlet to the washer pump, this blocks up with the build up of crystalized washer fluid. fords official protocol says to use a small sharp object the size of a pencil to peirce the mesh and allow the flow of water. Also most washer bottles can be accessed via the front wheel arch. simple undo the fixings and pull the innier plastic wheelarch out the way and pull the pump out of the bottle. they are never fixed in just wedged in.
