Heater core is leaking
how to replace water pump on 2001 ford ranger
your heater core is leaking i would replace it.
In the front passenger footwell , by the kick panel
That's the metal wall that divides the engine compartment from the passenger compartment
In the right front passenger footwell , by the kick panel.
not much on the passenger side dashboard to leak except your heater core, dont know why the fluid is black though.
I had the same issue with a 2001 Alero and the Oldsmobile repair shop installed some sort of deflector inside of the door. Not sure what or where exactly but that is what they told me.
I don't know if your Ranger is the same but on the 2001 Ford Explorer the 4X4 module is located behind the right front passenger kick panel
Water on the passenger side floor would be a plugged up AC drain. The drain is located under the hood, at the lowest point on the HVAC box on the firewall. However if the floor is wet with engine coolant, the heater core is leaking.
According to the Owner Guide it's in the passenger footwell by the kick panel
Behind the passenger side kick panel.
