Default Where is the water coming from?

In the GS300 there is water on the passenger side carpet all the way to the back seat carpet. It seems to be coming from under the carpet, because the floor mats are not wet on top. Just the carpet beneath. Where could this be coming from? Could it be coming from the fan for the AC located under the glove compartment?

It is probably coming from the AC drain hose. It probably has come unpluged or has come out of its drain hole to go outside of the car. Look under the dash under the carpet by the glove box.

It could be so many reasons. I have same kind of problem along with about half of the memebers here. My leak is on drivers side.

As I say it could be range of things.

1 - A/C hose not draining
2 - Heater core leaking - Major Repair
3 - Cracked A/C evap. case - Major Repair
4 - Rust holes under the dash

I suggest you search the forums for more info.
