Got a problem with the rear washer jet on the girlfriends corsa. Its a S plate GLS.
Basically, when she pushes the stalk for the rear washer jet, the rear wiper moves, and the pump activates because you can hear it, no water comes from the washer. Instead it pisses from the botom driver side of the boot, and we also found a bit near the passenger side rear speaker probably from where the black pipe connects from the car to the bootlid.
how can i get to the water pipe to the washer to see what the problem is? and has anyone had this problem before?
thanks

The hose will be split where it goes from the body of the car into the tailgate. Open the tailgate up and on the passenger side there is a rubber boot, pull this out at either end and in there the hose will probably be broken or it will definatly be broken around that area.
At work we use a piece of metal brake pipe and put it inside the hose to join the 2 broken parts together again.

I had a similar problem with mine mate (it was already split and joined with brake pipe from when i changed the tailgate tho) - turned out to be a kink in the hose so water couldnt get through so it just came out of the join
