6.2.2 Procedure for determining water entries
via endoscopy
Endoscopy is used to check and search for additional indicators
that would lead to the point of water entry at locations that cannot
be viewed with the naked eye without requiring major dismantling
of components; it allows viewing various components in the ve‐
hicle's interior.
By using both the control console and a probe endoscopy ena‐
bles:
♦ Locating, for example, defective sealants or improperly posi‐
tioned cover plates in areas that cannot be seen with the naked
eye.
♦ Following the flow of water through the vehicle body, begin‐
ning at the point where the water is visible and following it to
the point of leakage.
Using endoscopy for checking:
– Connect the adapter and the suitable probe to the control con‐
sole.
– Press the ON-switch on the control console.
– Insert the probe in the appropriate entry.
– Move the probe forward and turn it in order to get a complete
view of the internal cavity on the monitor.
