I found you because I was looking for help in locating the drains for the sunroof on my 2001 Explorer Sport Trac. I'm having trouble with leaks, and I believe the drains are clogged.
There are four drains, one at each corner of the sun roof frame. Mine doesn't have a sun roof but I would think the drain hoses were routed down the front windshield posts and the rear cab corners into the rockers. This is the best photo I could come up with.
I had leaking problems and I blew out the drain tubes with a compressor and an air gun that seated tightly. Fill the edge tray with water and cleaner. Allow some fluid to flow down the tube and blow it down the tube. Just air won't do it. Repeat several times allowing the cleaner to soften any buildup.
Do you have other views of the sunroof. Mine doesn't snug up tight in one corner. Think some linkage bent or snapped the rivet. That is why mine lets in more dirt and cloggs up the holes on occasion. Ignored it a long time cause it is a pain to get at.
