        3 of the 5 wires running to my tailgate had snapped over time. This explained the inoperative wash wipe and heated screen! ​​​​​​

        It's not super easy but very doable to get the loom out. On my coupe I found connectors tucked up under the passenger side parcel shelf support. Disconnect that and the look can pull pulled up the c pillar.

        To check, you can either do multimeter check or just peel back the rubber tube grommet and see. My problem was obvious - completely snapped.

          oh, hang on, washer pump wiring may not go through the tailgate​​​​​​

          Oh well, if you do have rear wiper trouble; it's a suggestion where to start at least
