    I know you guys are probably seen it before, I put compressed air in the AC drain hose, nothing, I am not quite sure where it’s coming from exactly.One possible cause could be a leak on some part of the weatherstripping when tropical storm beta rolled in other than that, I’m stumped, any other suggestions my Tacoma brethren?Thanks

    There are a few place to look.
    It’s been discussed here many times.
    It ranges from windshield, ac drain line, roof rack bolt holes, fresh air intake, to cab seam.

    My first step would be to pull the cabin filter.
    If it’s wet, I’d start with the fresh air intake (under the hood and below the windshield)

    Has the windshield ever been replaced?

    Here is the TSB for the seam leaks on the 2005 Tacoma. It has helped many repair their leaks on their Tacomas.

    You guys are the best, I guess I’ll go ahead and buy these things, my Toyota dealer isn’t too far from here, of course the salesman see me coming in they always ask me “when am I going to trade that in”?

    I have the same issue with water on the passenger side. It rained hard last night and no water. I checked the ac condensation line, cowl, seam, ran the ac and heater. No leaks. Any other suggestions?

    Thatks kind of confusing? No water?

    Anyways,
    If it is leaking and you have checked al the above, I would start by sticking my head u dear the dash and seeing if there is any indication of water intrusion and how far up it is.
    If I see no sign there, I’d pull the side floorboard trim. And lift the edge of the carpet and inspect for water, drainage, pathway. Just any indication of water.

    I have seen one case where the seal around the Antenna leaked.
    This might be a thing to look at?
    I’m NOT talking out the outside seal.

    Much appreciated! I should have said there was water, but has since dried up and there was no new water after the most recent rainfall. I’ll have to check the mast.

    Don't forget the grommet for the antenna wire.

    Wouldn’t it get wet after running the heater if that was the cause? I didn’t see any water after using the heater.

    The heater core is always in the loop. Diverters in the ductwork move as you change temp and location. They're motor driven as well.
