Air Hose Test

Air Hose Test

Caution: Standard shop practices, particularly eye protection, should be followed during these operations to avoid personal injury.

Notice: The air hose test should only be used on fully cured urethane adhesive. Otherwise, damage to the urethane adhesive bead could result in additional leaks.

1. Apply a solution of liquid soap with bubbles to the suspected area.




2. Apply air pressure with an air hose from inside the vehicle. Do NOT exceed 205 kPa (30 psi).
3. Watch for outside bubbles at the suspected leak area.
