The rear window wiper uses the same fluid reservoir as the front, it just has a separate rear window pump attached to the fluid bottle under the hood.
The owners manual shows that the washer fluid for the liftgate is supplied by the reservoir for the windshield
My 2003 Sienna has one tank that is for the front and rear window. You might have a problem with your pump or something else. Does your front wiper work?
In the engine compartment. It is the same reservoir that supplies the windshield wipers. The fluid is pumped to the rear window via tubing.
Just a guess - a pump for the wiper fluid?

R/window wiper and washer are two separate things. Washer is simply a pump that squirts fluid onto window. First, have you checked the washer fluid level? How about the fuse? When you push the washer button can you hear the pump running? If not, possible bad pump, fuse or button. If so, maybe the pump is clogged or fluid delivery tube is plugged or disconnected. Hope that helps.
Assuming that your 2001 is the same as my 2000, the pump is atached at the bottom of the fluid reservoir. It does not need to be primed. --Ken
You add fluid at the exact same place you check the fluid level.
The fuse for the window washer on a 2001 Toyota Highlander can be found in the underneath the driver side dash. It is a 20 amp fuse labeled as WIPER.
bottom of the washer fluid bottle
There is only one tank for windshield wiper fluid in the 2001 venture. The tank actually has two pump mounted in it. The one for the rear window is mounted higher than the one for the front, so check the level in the fluid tank first. If the tank is full and you still do not get fluid to the rear, check the pump and then the "plumbing" going to the back of the van. Good Luck, Greg
