Water is leaking inside - very unusual place

[jellyfish]

Hi,
2002 Lincoln LS - I think the sunroof is leaking but not from the top, we fixed that. The water is coming from somewhere lower behind the backseat, draining down into the back floor. Is there a diagram for the hose system anywhere? Or anyone else had this problem? Thank you!

The sunroof drains could still be an issue. If you look closely at the rear seat bottoms, there are a couple small levers to remove the seat.

That might help find where the water is draining from, or to

Basic sunroof drain diagram above. The tubing probably pulled away. IIRC... the sunroof has rear drain nipples too

We pulled down the headliner and attached the 4 hoses on the top. Now there is leaking from a lower point??? Maybe the other end of the hose??? It's not visible under the bottom "seat" portion of the seat cushion. We pulled that up. The water looks like it might be coming from behind the top "back rest" portion of the back seat somehow. Thank you!

Maybe double check that they did not come off again? When I fixed mine I had to add a clamp as apparently the tubing shrinks over time and causes these to pull off the metal nipples. Others have had to add a splice and some more tubing to connect it.

Here is a great picture from a long shut down forum. Very hard to see the tubes and nipples and you don't want to take anything apart unless you need too!
