Underground PVC Pipe Locator

Need some advice on locating a blind underground termination of 1.5" PVC :confused:

PB installed a discharge line from the pump pad out into my back yard but never uncovered the discharge end of the pipe. Nice, right?! I have tried pumping water down it to see if I end up with a geyser, but no success. It is possible that the end is capped.

It's 1.5" PVC with at least 3x 90° fittings. Local plumber that I contacted said that their locator snake wouldn't pass thru the 90's.

I have a very general idea of where the discharge end is buried but I'd rather not do exploratory excavation to find this dang thing.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!
 
No way to locate the PVC pipe if a tracer wire was not installed with it.

You need to dig around to find it and send your PB the bill.
