2- little leak of powe oil
3- little leak in front of oil engine


any help please

The brake light switch is stuck on, possibly due to a missing rubber bumper. You'll probably find one on the floor mat.

If your power steering fluid is leaking, it may be from an O-ring at the attachment point of the power steering return line.

Can you take a picture of where the leaks are?

So I want change this part (brake light switch) how ?

[Towncivilian]

It's not the brake light switch's fault. There are two rubber bumpers at the brake light switch, one for brakes and one for cruise control. One or both probably fell off.



Check how many bumpers you need then order them at the dealer. It just pops in.

For the leak below the power steering fluid reservoir, replacing the hose should fix the problem. Your dealer should have the correct hose (the hose leaking is the power steering return line). If you want me to look up the exact part number, post your VIN and I can look it up.

Have you ever changed the power steering fluid? Dirty fluid may have damaged the power steering pump's seals and caused the leak. You can try using a high-mileage automatic transmission fluid like Valvoline MaxLife ATF (if available in your area) as power steering fluid, it may slow or stop the leak.

So the wiper arms do not move at all?

It is possible to readjust the wiper arm resting position, see page EL-139 of the factory service manual.

The leak is most likely caused by the power steering return hose. I will look up an exact part number for you soon.

appreciated your reply Please I want also third issue :

[Towncivilian]

Part number 49725-4W011 is the power steering return hose you need from the dealer.

Use a suction gun (like this) or a turkey baster (like this, but one you will not use for cooking again) to siphon the power steering fluid from the reservoir, then fill with a high-mileage automatic transmission fluid. It may slow or stop the leak from that area.
