Please help?
I have 2 problems that I need some help with.

1. The drivers side floorboard keeps getting wet after a rain. The strange thing is like last night I drove thru a rain storm for about 2 hours. I mean a gully washer to. I kept stopping and checking to see if the floorboard was wet and it was not. However I stopped to eat for about 1 hour and when I got back in the car the front driverside floorboard was soaked. Is there some kind of drain that could be clogged causing this? Any ideas?
2. My rear defroster is not working. The light in the car comes on when pushed but the rear window will not defrost.

Thank you
tc

Plugged airbox drain.

Blown defroster fuse or broken wire terminal.

rowdy,

There is no need for me to retype this info, so go to thr features section, then FAQ's 700/900, then body-glass section, then window defrosters.

For the water leak problem this section also has a page to read about leaks.

On the water leaks, check the recent archives, search "water drains" or "Body water drains" - someone even posted a good picture of where they are on the 240 model and how to access them - they get clogged with leaves, dirt, etc and the water has to go somewhere, usually into the floorboards...it is an easy fix...
