2005 mk1 rear washer not working

Hi, my rear wiper is working, but the rear washer is not. I cannot hear the motor coming on either.

The front washer is working fine, and can hear its motor and water comes out.

Is it a separate motor for the rear, as i can only see one tank near  the front driver side.

Any diagrams fuses would help .

I've had a look at the Haynes manual.

There's one washer pump attached to the washer fluid reservoir (it's a small black unit with 'Toyota Denso' markings in white with a wiring plug and 2 washer hoses attached to it you can disconnect). This feeds both the front and tailgate washer jets.

To remove  - it says you unplug the wiring plug and washer hoses from the washer pump (expect spillage to occur) and then pry off the pump and recover the rubber sealing grommet.

Refitting a new unit is the reversal of removal. 

They've marked this job as 2 out of 5 in terms of difficulty.

There is a picture attached but it's just one of the washer pump attached to the washer fluid reservoir.

There is a simple test I did when I had a faulty windscreen washer on my old Mk1 Avensis. I accessed the reservoir via the front wheel liner. Then I reversed the plugs to the two washer pumps. Then I activated the rear washer/wipe function or front in your case. What will happen, is the front wiper and rear washer or rear wiper and front washer will activate. This will confirm the electric is good, and the pump is dead. In my case I replaced nonfunctioning pump motor. These are more likely to fail, compared to the actual fuse. Make sure put the connectors back in their proper front/rear motors after testing! I should mention that hatchback/estate cars have two pumps, not one as mentioned in another post.

When you get a replacement washer pump, factor in washer fluid since you will have to drain the reservoir. I never use water alone, unless there is no option. 

The poster though an Avensis owner has a Yaris, but the same info still applies.
