Rear washer not working

[g.c.]

Was wondering where the hose runs for the rear washer, as I think there might be a split in it but not sure how easy it is to check or replace?

The pump sounds like it's working fine, but there's a delay of 10 seconds or so before any water comes through, and when it does it's just a trickle & there's a crackling noise (like someone sucking loudly through a straw!) coming from around the passenger's door area.

Any suggestions?
Thanks

Runs down the passenger side of the car inside iirc.

Ah, ok lol!

I read it as '....inside iirc' & was wondering which bit the iirc was!

Is it an easy job to replace the hose, does anyone know?

Could be a few things, pipe blocked/squashed, motor not working or motor clogged, hose come off (you'd get a damp roof lining usually)

Open your window and with the ignition on, can you hear the pump operating? In front wash and rear wash?

Front wash works fine- no probs.

Pump is definitely working for rear but takes a long time for any water to come through which is why I thought it might have split- water in hose draining out somewhere in-between uses maybe?

Is there one pump operating both washers or are there two separate pumps?

One pump mate and just goes one way for one, and the other for the opposite.

To be fair they can take a little while for the water to come out if you don't use it everyday sort of thing - how long are you waiting for it to start coming out?
