rear skoosher
« on: 27 January 2006, 08:43 »
noticed late last night that the rear washer jet is not squirting out any water (too dark and damn cold to investigate properly).  front jets working ok and a little water coming out the bonnet jets when pushing for the rear (pressure i guess).   :undecided:

i'm out on the electric soup tonight straight after work and shall be attempting a repair with a serious hangover tomorrow morning.  any ideas anybody before i get started??  :huh:

oh yes and i laid my rear wiper flat last weekend (dunno if it would have made a difference - doesn't appear to have knocked the jet)

I had the same thing last weekend and found the pipe had become detached and was peeing water all over my boot floor. It was located behind the carpet on the right side pannel, behind the light cluster. Check for detached pipes 1st.

pop the bonnet too, I found my driver would pop a pipe in there often as well!  While you're at it, buy a non-return valve from halfords and fit, makes the rear washer instant on :cool:
