Hi all
Anyone any suggestions for what needs fixing with my rear washer which appears to be blocked ('04 Blobeye hatchback)?
The motor seems ok as I swapped the pipes over with the front to test and it was ok.
Is it possibly blocked, or an issue with the no-return valve? If the latter, how do I access it?

Thanks in advance

 

Had this on front water key, just got an air line in the pipe and forced air through it to clear blocked.

 

Had the same issue and the non return valve was jammed also a front jet was blocked so soaked them in white vinegar for some hours and tapped them out and back flushed them under the tap and used a thin hair brush bristle to gently poke inside them. and now all ok.

 

The non return valve is a bit more complicated. It holds the water back until a certain pressure is reached. The one on my classic wagon blocked so I replaced it with a simple connector. After that, every time I pulled away quickly, the acceleration pushed the water back in the pipe and washed the rear screen.

 

Thanks, I will try it.

 

Did you check for rust ?

 

Thanks all for your replies, turned out the rear nozzle was blocked with gunge, fixed it with a paper clip and kept pulling the lever until it was all clear!!

 

Thanks for the advice.

 

Always appreciate a follow up! 👍
