Washer fluid in footwell

Post by MonkeyMark »

Hi all,
When I try to spray the rear washers nothing happens, but water pools under the carpet on the drivers side. I presume a pipe has come apart or split. Where would the pipe enter the car and what would be the best way to get at it?

Cheers, Mark

Mark, it comes in through the A pillar behind the wing and then runs up the A pillar to the roof cant rail and then along that to the C pillar before dropping down to the tailgate or across to the middle of the rear of the roof depending upon model.

Some have a non-return valve in the line and yours might have this just under the dash.
