Finally received my new crosstrek (nice present to end the year) and almost everything is working well so far. Only issue that I have is that the rear window wiper does not spray when I hit the rear window spray button. Front spray works without problems though.

I tried turning the rear spray switch for a few minutes of time and that didn’t help either. Has anyone else had a problem like this and how did they fix it?

Also on a simpler note, where on the rear window can I find the spray nozzle? Can’t seem to see it anywhere...

Silly question, perhaps, but does it have washer fluid in the reservoir?

I thought about that, but how would the front spray work then??

Welcome from BC , cold out this way as well

Agree with Maven454 Nozzle will be to the left of High Mount Brake light (when looking at car from the rear) it DOES Form a Stream only
this is Normal.... just make sure the low level light ! in the odometer area of the dash is Not lit up (low fluid level) Presuming you are using
either De-Icer W/Washer or Regular -40 all Purpose stuff.

If there is still no fluid exiting the rear of the car,you might have to look into a froze over nozzle,check hoses at the rear hatch area.

The pump to the rear is mounted a little bit higher than the pump for front spray.
I think, you have enough water to spray in the front but not enough to spray at the rear. Fill up the water to max and try again.

Or maybe its frozen.
