Hi, new to this, but thought after reading regularly to
sign up.
I have a 1998 se jackaroo & recently had trouble finding a leak. After many tests with the hose it appeared to becoming in through the bottom corner of the windscreen. Checked with a couple of windscreen companies & they almost certainly ruled out the idea that this was the problem due to the way it is fitted. I had filled the air vents between the bonnet & windscreen with water, blasted the hose against the firewall etc & no water invaded. Yet when hosing the bottom corner of the windscreen, water trickled through. Finally after sheer frustration I took the inner guard off over the wheel & noticed the seal for the antenna & blinker cable looked a bit sus. I shon a torch up inside & could clearly see it. A bit of silicon on the seal has now fixed the problem.
Just thought this may be handy to other Jack owners.
