water drainage from wind screen

1 comments:
Mr. Anderson
February 10, 2025

To fix water drainage issues from the windscreen on a Fiat Panda:

1. Check the Scuttle Panel: Below the windscreen wipers, there is a scuttle panel with drainage holes. Remove the panel by taking out the fasteners.

2. Unblock Drain Channels: Locate the drain channels on both the left and right sides behind the inner box. These channels may be clogged with dirt and debris.

3. Clean the Drain Holes: The drainage system includes a duckbill-shaped rubber valve. Squeeze it to remove trapped dirt and ensure proper water flow.

4. Remove Windscreen Wipers if Needed: Use a 14mm socket to remove the wipers for better access.

5. Check the Washer Pipe: Ensure the windscreen washer pipe is properly connected and not leaking.

These steps should prevent water from accumulating and leaking into the footwell.
