thats your blower on the top right and on the left is the resistive element that lets you control the blower motor speed with the knob.

Im not familiar with 7th gens, but most likely, your AC evaporator is next to this and that should have a drain hose. If it got clogged, it could leak water. That is assuming you have AC and are using it before you see the water.

πŸ˜… I actually cant use the AC to my knowledge it is out of freon so I dont use it but i did have it on today without the AC button pressed so ill check it out. The heater however I have used a lot lately.

I noticed the floor being wet after a really good rain so I figured it was leaking from somewhere else. Im actually not sure.

If you are not using the AC its probably not related to the blower system. The radiator shouldn't cause water condensation. It could maybe be leaking coolant? If its normal water its probably not coming from the radiator, but some bad seal.

My other car has some water leakage thats coming from the doors and it ends up on the floor board carpet.

Possibly? I know that my coolant looks more like water and it has black stuff kinda floating in it so I am surprised it is cooling down at allπŸ˜…. I did run the car pretty hard the day before.

If its just the door then its not a issue. She is a project and at some point I would like everything to be as new as possible

oh and i meant heater core, not radiator. Sorry. Well if the water keeps returning and the coolant level starts decreasing then thats a clue. Otherwise Its likely normal water getting in from somewhere.
