ive had problems with mine, water under the drivers seat.
turned out that pretty much all the drains were clogged, and i mean clogged ashell. after cleaning them out, front and back, no more problems.

so just make sure you look at them now that you know about the possible problems. there are 2 drains on both sides of the battery, and 2 are in the back when you put your car in service position.


heres where they are located in the diagrams

I don't understand the diagram

Thanks for the diagram, but I don't understand it.

In the rear, I know where the two drains are on either side of the top well, but mine are in identical locations on both sides (as depicted for "1"). I don't understand where they say "2" is located. It looks like it's up in the side of the car.

Likewise, in the front, I know where "2" and "4" are located ("4" is conveniently tucked under the steering column and some bracing), but I don't know where "1" and "3" are. Are they under the battery tray and in the left front fender?

And are all of the exits accessible without removing fender liners and the underbody tray?

Does the drain configuration vary by model year?

I've got to get a service manual for a '99.
