Rear Wiper Washer Problem

Anyone know how to clean the rear wiper washer nozzle? I am not even sure where the washer fluid comes out. I think the nozzle must be clogged. Thanks in advance!

At the very base of the wiper there is a cap that covers the nozzle. It is possible that this cap is actually popped out a bit and not allowing the fluid to shoot up. This happened on mine and all I did was reseat it. I also would check to ensure that you have fluid in both containers.

That happened to me, too. The R56 only has one container, though. The cap covering the wiper arm attachment bolt moves failry easily. I moved it slightly while drying my car and it blocked the washer stream.
