I have this this same problem (leaks from rear heater). I bought a new core for $100 (not original) and found the switch (or valve) under the seat might leak also. But I didn't change it that time. Few weeks later it still leaks. I explore the switch to the parts and found the sealing (or rather hole rubber plate) of the shaft has worn out. What should I do?..buy a new part (expensive)..put a common pipe valve (made of brass) instead (mucho work).. I decided to make a same size/thickness blind rubber plate => now the switch is always on..but it is also really cold here in Finland and you can adjust amount of heat by adjusting the speed of the fan.
