Are you sure it is blocked?

Open the boot. Pull back the side carpet trim in the boot which should reveal the rear wash pipe, complete with a juction that is prone to popping off and squirting fluid into the boot especially if you have had freezing weather.

If OK it may still be worth disconnecting this pointing the pipe from the front of the car into and trying operating the rear wash to see if it squirts fluid here....

Meant to say "pointing the pipe from the front of the car into a jar"
