You must remove from it's mount and empty out any fluids that is in tank.fill the tank with water and locate where the leak is coming from. wash tank a few times and the let dry upside down. Get some sand paper (80  grit course) and sand area where leak is, clean area with a vacume or clean rag.you can buy a 2 stage epoxy that comes in an injection form and squeeze it out on a pc of paper and then get a q-tip and mix the 2 components together, fill the crack or hole generously with the q-tip, if you have to,let dry for 24 hours and mix more and put more on. let dry another 24 hours, replace tank back in it's place and you've solved your leak. (epoxy does wonders if its used properly.

Where is the rear windshield fluid reservoir located on a 1994 Toyota Camry Station Wagon?

not 100% on this, but typically, you have to open the back hatch, and there will be a small rubber cap over the opening for the washer fluid located on or near the top of one of the taillight lenses on either side of the vehicle.

Windshield wiper fluid runs straight out of the reservoir. How do I fix this issue by myself?

Find out where its leaking from. A broken hose or a cracked tank. Find the leak and fix the leak. Have someone spray the washers as you look for the leak. Should be easy to spot and then repair....If it a cracked and leaking tank ....replace the tank???

Which fluid do I top up with in the reservoir next to the converter under the bonnet? Toyota prius 2005.

Is a old school habit to top up fluids, if is low is , then there is a leak, or somebody serviced wrong, the reservoir that you are mentioned is call inverter reservoir, it uses long life toyota coolant, if the water pump leaks it is the one that will get low.

for the record, the only fluid that you refill is the windshield washer fluid.

How do you remove a toyota tercel washer fluid reservoir

on the bottom of the front fender you will find a large black plastic cover, should have 8mm bolts holding it on, remove it, and you should be able to remove the 10mm nuts holding the tank in.

Suddenly leaking power steering fluid, reservoir empty

The best bet is its trans oil. The gearbox has crushable washers/gaskets, the bolts may just need to be tightened slightly to crush the gasket and seal.
