Default new owner of a 1989 cherokee

I just bought a 1989 Cherokee with 107,000 original miles, from the 2nd owner. He got it 2 months prior from the original owner. I am just getting into finding out about this Jeep, and found it has a rear door leak, possibly from the window washer fluid? Anyone else have this problem, and how do I tackle it? Would love to know more, this seems like a great vehicle. Is it possible to get the remote door locks fob still?

AWESOME!!! Welcome to the Renix era Jeeps!

Also, you may have to take off the rear hatch interior panel, to access anything inside "inside" the door....just some screws holding it on I believe. Then just look for the hose, and see if its leaking from anywhere.
