Default 2006 A3 rear window washer not spraying

I hear the motor running when I push the stalk to get washer working-no fluid. Has plenty of fluid in reservoir.

Take a small pin and put it in the washer holes. Mine had this issue when I got it used, and it was just that there was dust stuck in there.

OK, looking close with flashlight I see the two small holes and got a pin in them. Success!

i keep in mind, it is 2 little gaps right around the platform of the apply arm, that goes with the windshield wiper. Take a little pin and put it in the machine gaps. My own had this concern when I got it used, and it was just that there was particles cornered in there.
