Wondering where the line leads to. its leaking above the interior roof and staining it. I peeled back the plastic trim and a hose seems to disappear above the roof liner.

does anyone know how far where or how to get to that line without pulling roof liner?
Thanks

bump for new site. great Job! Anyone have any ideas where the rear washer hose goes? mine is leaking and turning the ceiling blue.
 






bumping this. I cannot find any information on where the leader hose goes under the roof liner. its leaking somewhere behind that trim. any helps or links would be much appreciated.

If it is leaking at the rear tailgate window near the middle of the headliner, you need to pop the headliner off (The hard vinyl trim piece only) at the rear and you'll see the small diameter rubber hose running above the roof liner to the rear nozzle the washer fluid squirts out of. The hose can separate there above the roof liner from the nipple. Some people glue them back together or you can just push it together over the nipple. If it is leaking farther towards the front, I think you need to pull off most of the headliner to get at the rest of the fluid line. The line runs from front to back.
 






thanks for the reply. i did pull the plastic trim down but i cant see where the line goes unless i pull the headliner off i guess?

i will give it a go tomorrow at some point and see what i find.
