Default Rear Windshield Sprayer doesn't work

I noticed the other day that my rear washer spray doesn't work. I tried filling the reservoir to no avail. I checked all the tubes, and the plastic connectors at the bottom of the reservoir and they all seem to be secure. I can hear the pump working, and fluid is trying to flow through the tubes, but it's as if the fluid will only go up so far and then when I stop the pump the fluid in the tubes just flows back down. I'm not sure what else to check. Anyone have any more ideas?

it's not the best technology, I've heard the same problem a bunch of times. I got rid of mine.

Try sticking a needle in the nozzle to remove any obstructions that may be impeding the flow of water.

The rear windshield sprayer sucks anyway. I hardly ever use mine.

just remove your rear wiper...solves that problem...I was going to remove the whole squirter assembly but I never got around to finding a white in color grommet to put in its place

when you take out the squirter, what is underneath it, a square hole, circular hole? I'll try and take it out and plug it.

I think it's a small, rectangular hole...

It's a small, round hole with two notches for the squirter mounting tabs.
