Make sure the hose on the rear wiper arm is attached to the little metal nipple at the base of the arm. If it is attached you need to test your rear wiper pump to make sure it is working.

Yep there is a pump inside your rear hatch panel below the window. It pulls the fluid out of the same reservoir as the front. Also look for kinks in the line from front to rear or you could have a disconnect or clog at the main reservoir.

have you tried holding the button down instead of just hitting the switch? mine takes about 3-4 wipes before fluid comes.
