Washer Fluid Sprayer, Rear not working. (1 Viewer)

[residualboulders]

new to me 80. Rear window washer fluid sprayer not working. There is a pump beneath the washer fluid bin that I guess is what sprays the windshield. Then there is this other sprayer here. The bottom of the sprayer has a tub that looks like it feeds the rear. top and side ports are just looped into each other. From the steering wheel switch when I spray the rear window it actually activates the windshield sprayers. Push button on the end of the stalk and it also sprays the windshield. Something can't be right here. Any one have any experience with this?

I would not be too concerned about bearings. If those are OEM pads I recall there is no wear tab for the rear. As for the wear it sounds like you got it covered. Heavy wear on only one pad largely points to slider pins. As I've preached before, make sure they are smooth and use only synthetic...

@JohnVee @retlaw Thank you. Found that thread and then proceeded to look at some exploded view parts diagrams. Looks like the PO had bypassed the diverter and gone straight to the hood sprayers. Was able to get the hoses routed where they should be and everything works as it should.

thanks!
