Tonya, faulty windshield seal seems to be a common vanagon problem. It happened to me this past summer...after each rain storm, there was a small puddle on each floormat. A short in your wiring due to this leak is highly likely, although it didn't happen to me. To fix the seal, I simply ran a bead of clear silicon caulk between the seal and the van, no leaks since. If you look carefully all the way around the windshield, you will probably see a point at which the seal pulls away from the van. Good luck, Pat >As such, I'm >thinking that maybe the wind was just right to get water behind my dash >somehow? I think a couple of drops actually fell from the bottom of the >dash onto the floor while I was driving--reason for my suspicions. ____________________________________ Patrick L.
