Default The floor board is soaking wet.

My girlfriends vette is a 2001 C5. She's noticed it early this week, but now it's really bad. The floor board is getting wet. And I think the water is dripping from some point in the a/c that it's hitting wires. Because the car didn't want to start at all yesterday. All the lights in the dash lit up like a christmas tree. Low fuel, tire pressure, etc. Any ideas? But after the car sat all day, she went to start it and it was like nothing happend.

the drain is clogged up for the A/C. It's on the passenger side firewall. I'll look for a picture.

Ff its water its your A/C drain. But my buddys was leaking coolant and it was his heater core that was leakig under the dash. The core is made with plastic tanks like a small radiator and were the hoses connect are metal sleeve covered in plastic the heat cracks the plastic exposing the metal the metal starts to rust and swell and begin to leak in the car
you better hope this isn,t your problem if it is look out.

That recently happened to me and it fried my BCM. I was away from home and couldn't fix it myself and it cost over $600 to have a dealer replace it.
