Had occasion today to discuss an old / intermittent issue -- taking my truck to Houston tomorrow, so I need to know what to look for in preventing recurrence.
This problem only occurs when I drive in hot weather in high humidity. Truck does shift all A/C flow to defrost under load. I don't think that's related, though.
Repeated efforts to locate / fix any sort of avenue for water intrusion into the cabin have been unsuccessful, but the drain has been cleaned 3 times, the screen's ok,
& this did not stop the flooding.
Question: what kind of material would make a good wrap / insulator for the inside-the-cabin below-the-dash AC/heater housing, in case that really is sweating
enough to flood my floorboard?
In high humidity my AC causes a flood condition in the passenger side floorboard of my 1997 Ram 1500 Extended Cab. Truck is 318 auto 4x2 with all the toys
except leather seats. (Which reminds me: where would I find a replacement for the bezel for the electric seat controls? the existing plate will no longer hold in
place with the provided screws.)
