You need to find the wiper fluid drive motor... That is what goes to the spray ports on the hood that you are showing. The resovoir sends to the motor which pulls from the reservoir and sprays out of the hood outlets. If you find it, you semply route the hoses out of the way to the hose you see on the bottom of the hood. There is no rule or mystery. Just dress up the hoses so that it looks somewhat organized..

Remember.. reservoir - motor - hood ourlets. dress up you hoses and you are good to go. Most te time the hose is close to the hood hinges, but away to not get snipped by teh hinge..

SOURCE: windshield washer reservoir tank is leaking how do I replace?

You must remove from it's mount and empty out any fluids that is in tank.fill the tank with water and locate where the leak is coming from. wash tank a few times and the let dry upside down. Get some sand paper (80  grit course) and sand area where leak is, clean area with a vacume or clean rag.you can buy a 2 stage epoxy that comes in an injection form and squeeze it out on a pc of paper and then get a q-tip and mix the 2 components together, fill the crack or hole generously with the q-tip, if you have to,let dry for 24 hours and mix more and put more on. let dry another 24 hours, replace tank back in it's place and you've solved your leak. (epoxy does wonders if its used properly.

SOURCE: Windshield washers not working

I wouldn't worry about tracing the hose just yet, most likely it's a bad pump. Find the wire(s) going to the pump, usually on the bottom of the reservoir and connect a test light to a good ground. Then have someone try to 'squirt' the washer fluid while you touch the test light 'probe' to the pump's wire connector. If it lights but no fluid squirts, it's bad. They are cheap and usually very easy to replace. If it doesn't light there's a brake in the circuit somewhere. (bad fuse, bad connector, etc.) Good luck.

SOURCE: windshield washer fluid reservoir - MB ML 350

right where the lines connect to reservoir, has little black seals that leak. I recommend removing reservoir, empty it out, then use RTV silicone and place it between seals and reservoir. Let it dry for FULL day. than reinstall.

Hatch window washer jet not working 2016 Ford Explorer Sport

If the hatch window washer jet is not working in your 2016 Ford Explorer Sport, there could be a few possible causes. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:
  1. Check the fluid level: First, make sure that the windshield washer fluid reservoir is filled with fluid. If it is empty or low, the washer system won't work properly.
  2. Inspect the hose: Check the hose that connects the washer fluid reservoir to the hatch window washer jet. It may be clogged or disconnected.
  3. Check the washer jet: Inspect the hatch window washer jet for any signs of damage or blockage. You can use a pin or a small piece of wire to clear any blockages.
  4. Check the fuse: If the washer pump is not working, check the fuse for the washer system. The fuse may have blown, and you will need to replace it.
  5. Check the washer pump: If the fuse is fine, check the washer pump. The pump may have failed, and you will need to replace it.
If none of these steps work, it may be best to take your Ford Explorer Sport to a certified mechanic to diagnose and fix the issue.

Where is the fuse for the water pump for the window washer

A washer pump in a car's windshield wiping system moves washer fluid from a reservoir through hoses. The motorized pump pressurizes the fluid to allow it to be squirted from the hoses through nozzles onto the front and/or rear windshield of a car. The washer fluid helps windshield wipers get rid of rain, dirt, or other objects that can interfere with a driver's visibility. If your washer fluid is not being sent out when activated, the solution could simply be filling the washer system's reservoir with more fluid or cleaning the nozzles and hoses. In more severe cases, the washer pump may need to be replaced. Here are steps to troubleshoot a windshield-washer pump.
