Rear Windshield Wiper Fluid Issue

[Charlie Stevenson]

Hi All,
I have an 06 EB that I just purchased a little over a month ago...my problem is when the wife tries to use the rear window wiper fluid it is coming out of the light in the back inside of the car. I am assuming that there must be a hose that is leaking in the roof of the truck that feeds the rear sprayer...anybody have this issue and how hard is it to remove the roof headliner ? Thank you in advance.

Open the whole back hatch (not just the window) and make sure the hose is connected and in good shape there first. It could be running down the crevice between the hatch/body along the weather stripping? The rear washer hose comes out along the top.

I did that first thinking it might be just running down a crevice...no water even makes it to the squirter at the back so it is for sure broken in the roof somewhere !!!

Pull that light down - I haven't seen it to be sure but odds are that the washer tubing is solid from the front to the back. That only leaves one option for a leak - someone punctured it. It may run close to that light and someone had it down and wasn't careful and caught it with a screw. If that's the case, then you should be able to splice it there.
