Default Issues with my c5 z06

Hey fellow vette owners, so I'm in Pensacola temporarily for training but I'm having two big problems. First all the big rain we've been getting has caused two issues my windshield wipers are now freezing half way up the windshield and it has exposed severe leaks on my passenger side causing standing water in the floorboard. I'd tackle the issues myself but I have absolutely no tools here!! I've done forum research but need help before I drive back to Texas with no wipers and a flood zone inside my z. Thank you, if you can help please call 214 543 5568 if you can possibly help me out.

If you have been using your A/C during high humidity and rain your A/C evap drain on the firewall may be plugged causing water to flow down through your A/C fan and onto the BCM on the passenger side floorboard causing weird things to happen. Ask me how I know.

Thanks ssweet for the quick reply but I haven't been using the ac but I'll still check the drain. Bcm seems to be completely dry

Udders are clogged.

Google search "corvette C5 udders".

As for water getting inside, the black moulding that goes along the top of the roof on that side is most likely pulled away. You can take and run a bead of silicone on there until you can properly remove the entire moulding and add the correct weatherstrip rope caulking.
