the mysterious interior rain leak

[Gatorboy]

Alright I have developed a rain leak underneath the passenger side dash coming from the plastic cover shown in the pic. I know it isn't condensation because it happened over night and its the wrong time of the year for AC use. This is clear and odorless water not antifreeze. Anyone had a similar issue and can point me in the right direction?

I have the same problem, but I don't know where it is coming from or what causes it. When it rains I get a small puddle on my passenger side floor mat.

Yep, pull the wiper arms off then the bezels, they are held in with a few phillips screws. Those screws and some below that bezel wear out over time and leak water when it rains. My 98 did it, fixed it by pulling the screws out and gobbing silicone everywhere in the holes and around the screws. Worked like a charm.

Fantastic! Gonna try that tomorrow. Hopefully it helps Gatorboy as well.

Mine leaked from the top center of the windshield. But puddled on the passenger floor. Took me a small forever to find it. I just siliconed the top edge of the windshield all the way across. No leaks since.

Check for clear HVAC drain hose. Make sure it is clogged with crud.

Thanks Chris I'll give it a shot the whenever it stops raining. I hope it works!

I've siliconed those screws an I'm still getting water in there. The only way I can stop it is to put the hvac on recirculate when I know it's going to rain.

I can actually hear it in the box hitting the blades on the blower motor and it leaks from the bottom mounting screw for the blower.

Which ones? Mine only happens when it rains, it doesn't happen with a/c use an that drain works fine in the summer when using the a/c....
