| 2007-2008 Saturn OUTLOOK |
Condition
| • | Some customers may comment that the right front floor is wet. |
| • | Although a leak on the IP BEC could cause various electrical concerns, the only reported effect has been rare cases of the engine continuing to run until all the fuel has been used up from the fuel line with the ignition key in the OFF position. |
| • | This leak may also cause some communication issues between certain electrical modules due to water dripping on the IP BEC. |
Cause
Water from the right front drain hose exits the vehicle through the plenum and may re-enter through the un-sealed seam at the front of the dash.
Correction
- Remove the windshield wipers and cowl screen.
- In order to verify the waterleak, run a small amount of water into the square hole inside the cowl while looking at the IP BEC.
- Allow the water to dry and proceed to step 4.
- Seal the seam INSIDE the opening at the bottom and to the right and left of the arrows in the illustration. Seal the seam with P/N 12378500 (in Canada, use P/N 10952233) Medium Body Seam Sealing Compound or equivalent.
