Heater Core

Post by Aburr »

Hello everyone ! I'm of course new here and have owned my 2004 vibe for about 2 years. I have a problem with it and have searched the forums and haven't found anything.The passenger front and rear floor boards are wet. I assumed heater core . I'm not mechanice by no means so that's why I'm here. Next to the center console on the passenger side there is a black rubber line that runs out of some type larger component. Is this the heater core ? I can only see the one line. Well here's the thing, the line had popped off . I'm not sure how but I didn't see a clamp of any kind holding it on. So from your professional opinion due you think this was my problem ??Thanks again

Well we have been running the ac. So this would explain why when I check the fluid in the car it wasn't really that low to be the heater core. So if I were to turn off the ac, and take the hose off , No water would come out ? Then of course if I turned on the ac it should have water come out ?

Just put the hose back on,and put a tie wrap on it so it doesn't pop off again.Usually the water only comes out with the ac on or after you use it.
