Thank you so much I've been trying to find the leak for months now on my girlfriends 97 jeep cherokee sport! I did your test and it started running in just like yours did thank you for your help!
On my 94 water was coming in from the rear hatch streaming in around the tail light assemblies. There is a notch on the bottom of the housing that needs to be seated behind a small nub on the body and then screwed in place sealing the gasket that gets sandwiched against the body. Gasket may need replacing. I also ran a bead of silicone across the top of the housing.
i have a 95 xj and it is in bad shape but got it for free engine trans and transaxle are in great shape. but i noticed i had water leak where you have dont know if it is that but thanks
I wish we had the same year/model. This is the 4th video with the 4th possible source of the problem. I have yet to find a video with the same model as mine.
gonna have to check this out on mine. My passenger side door jams are dry, but at the edge of the carpet next to the doors is pretty wet after a couple of rains.
yeah, i dont have a garage, and its been raining like crazy here every single day, and for the next week. When it dries up thats my first priority is pulling the interior and getting rid of any rust and patching any holes then sealing it up.
I noticed mine has that same leak from the seam and it’s pooling on to the blower motor seal. Did this end up solving it for good? Thanks for uploading this.
Yes it seems to be fixed, no leaks so far. I slathered a bunch of clear waterproofing silicone around the lower half of the blower fan opening and sealed the seam above it with RTV.

Same on 2000 Cherokee Xj.

I don't have any rear hatch leaking as far as I know but I'll remember that thanks!
Thank you
Got a leak on my 01 WJ passenger side. I will look at it.
I wonder if sealing that joint might hold water in the tray area...might need to breathe and expel any water inside there so it doesn't rust.
Agreed

I know right

Might be worth checking under the carpet too, these cars have really thin sheetmetal you wanna catch any rust ASAP

my 98 xj does exactly the same thing. I'm bleaching all the carpet matting etc.

Mine was around the a/c drain line ....used roof leak fix
Nice, my XJ didn't come with A/C so i'm not familiar with how those are set up
