The heater coil is leaking. Water from the cooling system runs through the heater coil to heat the passenger compartment. Antifreeze is corrosive, some heater coils are thin.
passenger side of the motor must remove the serpentine belt there is a diagram on the left side of the motor compartment
check your blower motor, located under the dash board. its on the passenger side. if the leak is on the drivers side, i have no clue. but my hubby's car is leaking water from the blower motor on the passenger side. found out at the car wash...
It is located on the front passenger side of the motor. It is part of the water neck assembly. You have to replace the entire unit neck and all. They run about 50 dollars. Actually the thermostat on the 2000 Intrigue is located on the drivers side of the motor.
I have a 2000 Intrigue, it was having the same problem. You need to turn the car off with the windshield wipers in the up position. On the passenger side you need to unscrew or basically pry off the plasic shield/molding where the wiper rests in the down position, it may help to lift the hood to get this piece off. Below this plastic shield you will see a piece of rubber that was suppose to be diverting water to the right or left of the passenger side air conditioning filter, however, it is just laying there on top of the filter, immediately below the filter is the blower motor. Instead of the rain water being diverted it is going right down into the blower motor and onto the floor because this rubber piece has fallen off. Get sealant/glue/duct tape and re-attach the rubber. The hardest part is prying the plastic shield off.
The Blower motor for the E320 is located on the upper front left side of the engine directly above the water pump. The blower motor is NOT in the engine compartment! The "blower motor" above the water pump is the EGR/Smog pump, part of the emissions system. The actual blower motor for the HVAC system is under the dash, above your feet on the passenger side of the car, just remove the panel and look up. The filters are located behind the glove box (which has to be removed to access the filters). They clog and don't allow the air to blow and eventually will burn out the regulator on the blower motor itself. There are also 2 separate charcoal filters next to the blower motor under the dash that filter smog from the cabin, these are not as crucial to replace, but should be done at some point. (total of 4 filters 96-02 Eclass).
On the 3.5L The thermostat is actually part of the water neck on the front of the motor. Passenger side on the front. Follow the radiator hose to the engine. Where it goes into the engine is the water neck. It is all one piece.
you most likely need a new heater core or it maybe the heater hoses that go to it are leaking.
Blower motor control relay under dash behind blower motor is bad or has water in it from cabin filter port.
Your A/C drain plug is clogged causing water to leak into the blower motor which causes a short. To resolve jack up the car and properly support it using axle stands. Locate the black tube coming out of the firewall near the centre. Using a coat hanger insert into tube until there is resistance the wiggle back and forth until water starts to drip. On the inside of the passenger footwell remove the under dash cover remove the bolts on the blower motor and disconnect the wiring replace the blower motor and reinstall.
wife having same problem changed 2 motors water is leaking from topside somewhere into the blower motor put pin holes to make sure and was right now passenger side gets wet when rains from water dripping can't find out how it's getting but the motor still going
The A/C drain plug is clogged. When it rains the humidity is high and the A/C will remove the moisture in the air. If the drain is plugged water flows to the passenger side through the blower motor and onto the floor have the drain plug cleared or you will be replacing your blower motor on a regular basis. Until then do not use A/C or front defrost setting.
Yes. Hot water comes from the water heater. The blower motor propels warm air around the house through the duct-work, but is not connected to the hot water heater in any way.
