### Drain Hose Routing

A drain trough encircles the sunroof window panel and water is drained off by the drain hoses located at each corner of the housing. A drain channel spans across the sunroof module at the rear of the window panel and directs water into the trough.

2. Ensure the rear drain hoses are routed through the rear pillars and out of the rocker panel. Ensure the rear hoses are properly routed in the metal roof slot and taped in place. Replace any torn or cracked hoses. Refer to Sunroof Housing Rear Drain Hose Replacement.
