Hi all, odd fault ( aren't they all!) I've got no rear washer, checked all the obvious. fluid, washer motor can be heard running, taken out jet from rear wiper arm, checked 1 way valve behind spare wheel carrier, but no joy or water. Anyone got any ideas, I'm thinking a blockage in the pipework but can't tell exactly where it runs so any help gratefully appreciated before I start stripping bits off

Check joiner hasn't popped off which is inside boot side panel on the tailgate hinge side. Sometimes the jet gets blocked and the pipe blows the join off. You could listen at the side panel and see if you can hear water !!

Have a good look for fluids in or under the car.
I was checking over a virtually brand new campervan the other day, I think it had only had 1 or 2 previous hires, and saw some fluids dripping under the engine.
Looking in the engine bay the RH chassis rail was covered in water. Looking up, there was a steady drip in the washer hose near to the bottle/pump. So I cut out the hole and used a joiner to fix the hose together.
Tried it again... and it sprayed out from another hole up near 1 of the washers. Did the same with that.
In total, there were 4 holes in the washer hose needing fixing.

You need a new washer hose supplier for your vans…
