Rear Camera Washer Stopped Working

[Sideline]

I recently noticed that the rear camera washer on my 25 Turbo is no longer spraying the lens. I can hear what sounds like a pump running when I initiate a wash from the screen but no washer fluid comes from the nozzle. I confirmed that there is fluid in the reservoir and the front windshield spray nozzles do work. This may be coincidental, but the car was taken in to the dealer about 3 weeks ago for the rear camera recall. I spoke to the the service advisor today and they said that the service tech did not do any work on the camera itself and that it was only a software/functionality check. I'll be taking the car back in to have it looked at but was curious to hear if anyone else has experienced this.

I have the exact same problem. Rear camera cleaner stops working after recall service. Have not yet scheduled bringing the car back in.

but does any else's dribble the washer fluid even without ever using it?

I had this same problem 2 days ago, I could hear the motor spin for a second and then pause and repeat but no water.
I gave everything around the camera and the spraying post a clean, tried again still nothing apart from a dribble - I repeated maybe 10 or 20 times and finally it started spraying again.
So i’m not sure whether it was a bit of dirt in the spray head or the pipe between the motor and spray head had dried out in the hot weather and it just needed a lot of presses to get the water through, but all working again now for me.

Did just as you suggested and after about 10 attempts it started spraying. Thanks again.

I had this same issue after the last visit to the dealer, however that was for different issues. I’ve just given it a good clean and several pumps through as suggested and its working again. Thanks for sharing!
