rear washer fluid stopped
Went to use my 07 rear washer for the first time in I don't know how long....heard the pump running but no spray out back checked hose connection between the tub and hard top and all was good. Had lots of fluid and front windshield wash works Looked at nozzle outside and not even a drip.
I followed the hose from the inside of the glass and along the length of it before it enters the hardtop. It had a fold pinch stopping the fluid flow. Looks like the material is getting stiff over time and prolonged cold weather doesn't help. Squeezed the sides until it was staying roundish and wrapped tightly with tape. Will probably need to cut a short piece of the next size up to use as a sleeve over that area for a more permanent solution.
