Is there an option to add a sprayer to the rear wiper arm? When I activate the rear sprayer I can hear it (pump) but noticed that the tube is terminated on the arm. Took off the "plug" but still didn't pump any fluid. Why have everything there just to terminate it where you need it? Live on a dusty road and would be nice to wash it once in a while :).

Make sure it's actually pumping. Mine was, but there was a hose disconnected under the hood, along the side. So when it pumped, it just ended up in the ground lol. Reconnect and all is fine. If it's not worked for a while, might take some time to reprime. Also, both pumps were leaking. They are located at the bottom of the washer reservoir. Cheap to replace, a little work to get to.

That was it. Tube was seperated. Tried to re-route the tubing until it snapped :banghead:. Used a little heat and a 1/8" vacuum hose coupler to get it back together. Thanks treehan77.

Is there a check valve somewhere along the line in these YD's? For future reference.
