The rear washer on my 2012 Tahoe works fine. The front washer does not. A small amount of fluid will come out if pressure is blown into the fluid tank..

SOURCE: Location of Rear Window Washer Fluid Tank, 2001 Jeep Cherokee

It is the same tank, and the tank should have two pumps on it, one for front and one for rear.

SOURCE: 1999 Jeep Cherokee rear window washer

There are two separate washer pumps underneith the washer res. behind the front driver quarter panel. The exact pumps are hard to find. I have the same prob with my 99, but both are out. I had a 98 that the front worked but not rear. I had to get a "universal" washer pump. I'm still trying to find a factory replacement for this one before I do that. No luck so far.

SOURCE: rear windshield washer works but front does

Probably need to replace the pump. Separate pumps for front and rear. Check with a test light to see if there is power to the pump. If it has power but won't work, replace the pump. If no power, you have a wiring issue. Be sure to turn the switch on and have someone push the washer button when you are checking for power. There won't be any until you push it to "wash".

2012 Hyundai Santa Fe Limited. I am replacing pads and rotors. What is the proper sequence for flushing the brakes

When replacing brake pads and rotors on your 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe Limited, it's important to flush the brake fluid to ensure optimal brake performance. Here are the steps to follow:
  1. Gather the necessary tools and supplies: brake fluid, a brake bleeder kit, a wrench, and a clear container to collect the old brake fluid.
  2. Start with the wheel furthest from the master cylinder, which is typically the passenger rear wheel.
  3. Locate the brake bleeder valve on the caliper. It's a small valve with a rubber cap on it.
  4. Remove the rubber cap and attach the brake bleeder kit to the valve.
  5. Have an assistant pump the brake pedal several times and then hold it down.
  6. Open the bleeder valve with the wrench and let the brake fluid flow into the clear container.
  7. Repeat this process until you see clear, new brake fluid coming out of the valve.
  8. Close the valve and remove the bleeder kit.
  9. Repeat the process on each wheel, working your way from the passenger rear to the driver rear, then the passenger front, and finally the driver front.
  10. Once you have flushed the brake fluid on all four wheels, check the brake fluid level in the master cylinder and top it off if needed.
  11. Test the brake pedal for firmness and ensure that the brakes are working properly before driving the vehicle.
Following this sequence will ensure that all of the old brake fluid is flushed out of the system and replaced with fresh fluid, which will improve the overall performance and reliability of your brakes.

Where is the rear windshield washer reservoir on my 2006 Subaru forester

Hello, The washer reservoir for the rear is the same as the one for the front. It has two small fluid pumps on the bottom of the reservoir, one for the front and one for the rear. If your rear washer isn't spraying, I would suspect there is a clog somewhere in the wash fluid tube leading back to the nozzle. If you have an air supply with a small tipped air blower, you can usually put a small amount of air through the line to see if it clears. I would advise to gain access to the rear washer tube and disconnect it and introduce the air at that location. Just figured I'd add that bit of diagnosis in case that was your problem. Hope this info helps!

Windshield washer fluid only working on passenger side

nozzle stopped up with wax, or tubing is stopped up, pump motor may be running, but pump isn't. Check for pressure at the pumps. Tubing sometimes comes off or has cracks that let washer fluid escape. Its sounds like a search till you find it type thing. Can't be too much, either a blown fuse, faulty pump/motor, or faulty tubing/clogged nozzle

Where is the rear windshield fluid reservoir located on a 1994 Toyota Camry Station Wagon?

not 100% on this, but typically, you have to open the back hatch, and there will be a small rubber cap over the opening for the washer fluid located on or near the top of one of the taillight lenses on either side of the vehicle.

2003 chevy tahoe no rear heat

I know the earlier tahoe's have two heater lines running from the engine compartment to the rear under the vechile. Those lines could be clogged or pinched shut. What you do is get two hose locking pliers. Go under your truck, they are two metal lines that turn into rubber and back into metal again farther down the line. First, checked for pinched lines. If none, find where the rubber hoses are, clamp them off, remove from metal lines and drain. Use garden hose to flush fresh water through. When water comes through at high pressure and pretty clear, it should be done. Reconnect hoses, top off radiator fluid and it should be fine.
