[QUOTE="stang99x, post: 15496376, member: 169847"] And check the drains under you wiper cowling! All the years I've spent working on cars, and as many times as I have fixed this for others I have rarely ever checked my own. We had a hella thunderstorm last night and this morning when I left for work, I noticed my radio wasn't working on the passenger side. Well I had added the Kicker Shelby amp a while back and went through hell and creation getting it all to work so it was the first thing I had in my mind as the fault. When I got up under the dash to look it over, the amp was wet........yes wet like with water. I thought the door harness pass through had come loose (and it had) so I got it back in and thought little else about it. Then one of my employees said he noticed twice when I moved my car there were water puddles under, and sure enough further inspection revealed it to have a constant drip. I looked under it and the water was seeping between to pressed and welded body panels above the cats. Further inspection found the drains on both driver and passenger fully clogged and about 2 quarts of water sitting in each one. The drain is little more than a rubber grommet with a "one way" flappy end about 2 inches long. But it's solid enough to clog with minimal debris. I park outside, but there were no leaves from anything around my house in there, just some leaves and dirt from parking in a parking lot at work. Do yourself a favor and go check yours out now before you get undesired water in your electrical system!!! [/QUOTE]
