Then, it must be joomla translation files overriding that override in some way. In that case, you should edit the file "filter" for your front end template via the menu Display->Views and directly change the text : JText::_('FILTER') by: 'Rechercher' and that will do what you want.

But it is not the best solution for me since I have a multilanguage site and it is not possible to translate the word by this solution. I will keep looking if I can find where the override is coming from. In case you also find it let me know.
