Air Conditioner Condensate
Has anyone had a problem with air conditioner condensate leaking on to the passenger side floor instead of on the ground outside of the car?
At first I thought I had a leaking heater core but it isn't antifreeze it's water leaking down through the blower motor. I suspect there is a condensate vent hose blocked or detached somewhere but I can't find it.

This is fairly common. There are 3 (?) drains inside the engine compartment on the passenger side which tend to clog. This forces the 'condensate' into the people compartment and onto the floor on the passenger side. Please do a search in the tech section. Someone had a great write up with pics.

This is the thread you want regarding C5 leaks in general, http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show....php?t=1246715
This thread is about the A/C leaking into the passenger footwell http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show...hlight=ytwokc5
Make sure you pull the carpet back, dry it out thoroughly and last but not least.... make sure your electronics are dry!

You guys are great. Just noticed the water on the passenger side of my wife's 00 coupe, a quick search and here's my answer. Keep it up you have been helpful many, many times as I have 3 C5s and stay busy!
