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

YesPut a Tie wrap around it and call it done.Thats's the ac drain.

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.
