From my remembrance chasing-down this same issue, if the wiper works, but the fluid does not squirt, there's nothing electrical to check in the tailgate.

The rear washer pump, located in the passenger side wheel well, is the only other electrical element in this system, and if you say it is working, then the only other issue is that you have something plugging-up the line.

From that pump, work to the rear of the car, detaching the tubing at every joint, and run the rear washer to make sure the fluid is reaching that joint.

There's a little filter, or one-way valve, under the passenger side of the wagon's floor. Be sure to check at that point.
