Had the same issue recently with my VX. The leak was coming from the pump itself at the union between the plastic and metal portion of the pump. Called Merlin @ St Charles Isuzu and about $35 dollars and 4 days later I had a new pump that came with a new rubber gasket. About 15 minutes to replace and leak is gone.

Had the same issue with my '93 trooper with the same pump setup. Tried taking the pump apart and fixing the leak but was not sucessful. Didn't try to fix the pump on the VX.

Plugged the tube nipple, filled the reservoir with water, but there was no leak. Wonder if wrangling out the electric power plug managed to re-seat the leaking pump seal?

Fortunately the hard part of the reservoir removal operation was taking out the battery to make room. Removing the reservoir itself wasn't too much hassle, just disconnected 2 screws, the electric power plug and tube.

Will try reinstalling it and see if the leak returns.
