Recently changed MHs to a Knaus Sun Ti. All good but I noticed yesterday there was about half an inch of water in the glove box (Fiat Ducato). OH says she didnt put her water bottle in there on our last trip out a couple of weeks ago so I can only assume I have a leak somewhere or maybe it's an aircon drain pipe or something similar. Has anyone experienced this issue and maybe give me some pointers?
TIA
 
I changed the blower resistor pack on my van yesterday, which is under the glove box. It's a pig to get at, and I braced myself with a hand in the cubby shelf above the glove box. My hand was wet and I can only assume condensation or a leak from the scuttle through air vent. It couldn't be the condensate pipe from the air conditioning as the van has only been driven 5 miles in the last few weeks without the air con on

I am sure that there is a drain in the back of the heater air inlet aperture. You should be able to use a good torch and reach in with a hand to check. Otherwise run some water directly into the aperture and check for water draining under the vehicle and/or water dripping down inside.
I am assuming it is a Fiat/Peugeot based vehicle.

Thanks Geoff. Yes, I did say it was a Ducato base. I will see if you are right but it's a job that will have to wait for the weekend!
