Water damage to A/C, radio module. Where is it?!?!
Hi guys,
every time it rains my radio and A/C go haywire. Does anyone know where the module for these is? I’m thinking the rain gets in through the sunroof since the drains were clogged. Any help will be appreciated.

the AC module is down underneath the passenger side of the dash - between the AC pollen filters and the fan assembly - sounds like you need to check for a puddle under the starter battery in the engine bay
the HiFi amp is in the boot on the left side behind the rear wheel - these die for fun - they don't need a puddle of water to help, this comes from the bad design of boot lid making it damp, or worse a flood filling the inner rear wing though air vents behind the bumper that are terribly placed
I think a sensible start would be to double check
