Avensis rear washer query

Hi  Hope you guys can point me in the right direction.  The rear washer on my D4D Avensis 2004 estate has failed.

Thought it may have frozen during the snow.

Any tips on how to fix it?  How and indeed where is the electric pump located. Is it on the washer bottle or buried in the bodywork somewhere.

 

Thanks  AG

The pumps are attached/adjacent to the washer bottle. Access isn't too bad. Remove the right front wheel and bits of liner around the bumper. Hopefully just some hose will have popped off. Replacement pumps can be sourced on eBay for not a lot. If the pump is working don't assume a blockage. Swap the pumps over as the inner seals may have failed causing reduced pressure. 

The feed to the rear washer will be via the roof if it's the same as the hatchback. Removing the headliner will be a nightmare.

Thanks.  Over the weekend I found the pumps were working. I then swapped the hoses over and found water was getting through to rear windscreen.  It looks like there is a blockage in the last 2 or 3 inches of the pipe. probably the nozzle.  Finding difficulty accessing it with a pin.  Will have to take a panel off to get proper access to the nozzle.  Hopefully when that is off I'll be able to clear any blockage.  If I can't I should be able to replace the bunged up nozzle.  Thanks for your help Gazza.

Cheers  AG
