I searched but could not find. Wife has a 2000 100 series. No washer fluid makes it to the back window. I have held the switch for a long time and you can hear the motor run but no moisture. What's up?

...which then would need to be filled with fluid. Do you have fluid going to the front window?

topped it off this morning. We have had the cruiser about a year but the rear washer has never worked for my wife. She finally has nagged me enough about it that I decided to do something about it plus I'm trying to get some brownie points so I might get something good for christmas - maybe a little nookie.
Last winter the nozzle above the rear window that sprays the fluid came loose and twisted sideways. Whenever I tried to clean the rear window the fluid sprayed out to the side never hitting the window! I thought it wasn't working until I stood behind the truck and had my wife hit the button. Not so funny then! I simply twisted the nozzle and snapped back in place.
you might also have a pipe clogged. the only way I have heard of this being corrected is by poring very warm water in the system until you empty it it of the old fluid. Then Try operating the rear. Be careful not to burn up the motor.
You can get your kids to do at, as after about 5 minutes of spraying you will be bored off your ass. YOu might actually need to kids and buddy and a six pack so you don't fall asleep. but it is effective at removing residual buildup.
If that doesn't work you might want to get the manual offline and check to see if the pipes are all connected

Thanks, I will give that a try (especially the six pack part)

Good suggestion - how do I crawl inside the line to do it from the inside out though?

Does the line run underneath? I figured it would freeze. Or did the water just run down and from there you could find the spot?
Good point, the rear nozzle likely has a bend in it. If it it truly the nozzle that is clogged, then I'd remove it, do the pin thing and then blow compressed air through it.
Does your LC have the screen filter at the opening of the washer reservoir?

Yes it does. Hopefully the temp will get above freezing today and I can go out and tinker with it a kittke bit. Thanks all for the suggestions
I have the same issue, did you ever find a solution? How do you remove the rear nozzle to run the pin through?
