Rear window spray nozzle replacement?

Does anyone know how to do this? Is it even replaceable? Right now when I turn the knob to spray fluid on the rear windshield, I just get a line of fluid flowing down the windshield...which is useless

Thanks,
Jeff

Assuming you meant a line of fluid down the back window, then that is all I get with mine as well....and all I got with my last car with a rear sprayer. If there's a better way, I'd love to hear it.

So it's supposed to just kinda dribble down onto the glass?

unless you really mean like a faucet that has a leak, sounds to me like normal operation (it just sheets onto the glass in about a 1 to 2 inch wide sheet) does not spray like the front

little thing i do, you can prime the pump with some quick turns to get the fluid back there without activating the wiper (so do a few pushes on the knob but dont hold it turned), then when u see a little bit come out, go for the full spray so you get a full WET swipe with the blade, rather than a few dry scratching wipes!!

The front ones spray in a wide pattern...the back one shoots like a jet. It's not really even a "spray"...like if I turned on a faucet. It's not a wide spray at all...2 jets in a V shape whereas the front sprays a V shaped mist. I'll see if I can get a video.

d'oh! I was sure it was broken because it doesn't seem very effective this way...oh well. Now I don't have to worry about replacing the nozzle. The blade, on the other hand, needs to go.
