I have a leak in the line that goes back to the back glass. It's under the passenger door. Where exactly is it. It seems' like it's inside the body but i'm not 100% sure. Nor do i know how to get to it.

 

there is a t-fitting that is right above the carpet under the dash, mine popped loose there and a quite a few others have had that issue as well, look up under the dash, pop the line back on and put a zip tie around it to keep it there...2 min fix

 

yup yup, brewcaptain is right. I've had to do this a couple of times (I didn't do the zip-strip thing). However, if you are curious, the line (its like 1/4" and black) runs under the trim panels that are on the floor by the passenger door (the door jams?, i dunno what you call them).

You may also find in the future that the line to the rear wiper disconnects too (diagnosed by washer fluid dripping into the cargo area at the back when you activate the rear squirter) so here are the instructions for fixing that. Maybe save you a hassle in the future

Getting to the back is really easy, but a little more involved.

•Remove the plastic piece that goes across the top at the back. (it has clips and should just kind of pull off)
•Pull out the two plastic pins that hold the headliner to the roof (they are the same ones from the front little panel with a bunch of little ribs on them)
•I also like to remove the light to get more access (pop off the clear part, and then use a screw driver to push in the tabs on the opaque plastic part)
•pull down the headliner a bit, and you should see where the little washer tube has a little black fitting, and you just need to push the 2 parts of the connector back together (a little duct tape might not be a bad idea hear, like you said)
You can get a basic idea of where the tube is going to be before you do anything by looking where the tube exits the rear lift gate and enters the vehicle (its the little black corrugated tube on the passenger side)

Seems like a poor design on Fords part that it separates every once in a while , but fortunately, its an easy fix

 

I had a problem with my rear window washer Saturday. It leaked from behind the upper trim piece on the window. Found a small pin hole in the rubber hose where it touched the opening in the metal frame of the back glass. Took a pair of wire cutters, cut the hose at the pin hole and reconnected the hose with a brass barbed fitting. Then wrapped the entire area with electrical tape to shield the hose from the sharp metal edges. Seems OK so far.

 

So the line itself is inside the cab or outside? Cause mine seems to be leaking in the outside area. Not finding any water inside.

 

You have the exact same symptoms my X had, and it was a disconnected hose at the firewall interface. If you pull up the rectangular piece of plastic that runs at the bottom of the door opening (the one with the raised dots - just pull straight up, it has snaps) you will see a trough with a wire bundle and a small black hose. That is your hose. If you activate the rear washer you will see fluid run down this trough, and then drain somehow (through the seam in the panel maybe) out onto the ground. If this is the case, you need top pull back the carpet at the right side of the passenger footwell where the carpet meets the firewall. You should see a black thing with a barb for a hose (and my bet is a disconnected hose). Put 'em back together and you should be golden.

good luck!

 

Yep that's exactly how it's leaking, as if the hose was inside the body, cause it's draining what seems to be the seem underneath. That's what was confusing the heck outta me. First thing tomorrow i'll check it out.


Thanks for all the help

 

Went out and fixed it. They sure put that together fairly cheap. Will put more of a fix to it on a later date. But thnx for all the input.

 

glad that was what it turned out to be!
