Rear washer fluid nozzle

[colind]

My rear window washer fluid nozzle does not work.
When I attempt to squirt fluid on the back, it just comes out the front window nozzles.
Is there a diverter that needs to be replaced to send fluid to the back?
In addition, has anyone replaced the nozzles on the hood, they seem so weak.

Thanks guys.

Stick a small pin in them to clear them. (Or actually remove and clean them if you want; there's even a thread on this.) Rear nozzle may simply be clogged as well.

I am also having some trouble with my rear washer nozzle on my 92 HDJ81. I can hear the pump trying but nothing comes out. The fluid then seemes to run out near the bottom of the rear bumper? Any suggestions on where the hose for the rear nozzle runs?

Do you have barn doors (side by side) or a liftgate?

On a liftgate, the hose runs on the left side of the truck, inside the rear USDS quarter panel. You have to remove the panel inside the truck to get at it...

(USDS = U.S. Driver Side = LHD. Yours may be RHD, though...)

How about nozzles that provide more of a fan spray? My nozzles are clean and clear, thanks to a torch-tip nozzle cleaner. I just wish they provided a better pattern instead of four direct streams.

Well Lane Meyers aren't we needy!

I don't think you can get a differnt pattern without replacing the heads with something else.

Also to note, not only does the diverter fail, but there's a check valve in the quarterpanel that can get clogged. I read a bout this in an old thread, and after replacing my diverter had to remove the check valve and clean it as well.

Now I have clear, high pressure spraying F&R!

open the compartment where the jack is on the USDS and have someone try the rear washer. the hose on mine came loose and was leaking in that quarter panel and ulimitately on the ground. i had to remove the bracket that holds the jack to find the tubing. it came off upstream of the diverter. hth.

The annoying thing about mine, is when I turn on the front sprayers, it squirts full blast out of the rear too.


And in case you haven't noticed, bugs don't really stick as well to the rear windshield. So then I have to remember to turn the rear wiper on.



And when I turn the rear wiper on, it dribbles out of the front a little bit, and that makes me irritated. Cause it causes water droplets to form on the hood.

Rear sprayer

Thanks for the help. I found my leak in the area where the jack is stored. The fluid hose had been disconnected at a splice connector. I had to remove the jack and fish around for the connector. Now on to electrical....

You need to replace you diverter valve.
