Water is like air it goes through the tinniest hole. it could be coming from your windshield seal. if it is the pass footwell area it could be your heater core. I hope it is not the heater core but if it is the water will smell sweet and fog your windshield when on defrost

SOURCE: 2006 Chevy Colorado - I got a significant amount of water on the floor of the vehicle. removed the water with a shopvac. Later I drove the vehicle and noticed it automatically changed from 2WD to 4WD.

Locate the IP to body harness connector, THIS CONNECTOR IS UNDER THE DASH HIGH UP ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE. Check to see if there is a water leak into the area and repair as necessary. Use a water hose to determine the source of a water leak and effectiveness of repair. Some examples of potential water leaks are: A-pillar seals, sunroof drain lines (if so equipped) and windshield/cowl sealing. Finally, repair or replace the IP to body harness connector, making sure no corrosion or debris is left on or between the terminals.

IT IS ADVISABLE THAT YOU REMOVE THE INTERIOR CARPETING AND DRY IT THROUGHLY. IT WILL MOLD AND SMELL REALLY BAD AFTER A FEW DAYS IN THE HEAT.

USE A WATER HOSE STARTING LOW AND WORKING YOUR WAY UP TO DETERMING WHERE THE LEAK IS. OR USING A FOAMING TYPE WINDOW CLEANER SPRAY IT WHERE YOU THINK THE LEAK MIGHT BE AND USE COMPRESSED AIR FROM THE INSIDE ON THE TRUCK FOLLOWING THE SEAMS AND WINDSHIELD.

SOURCE: 2006 Chevy Colorado - I got a significant of water in cab on flr

This happened to me. Problem is that the wiring and transercase ECM under the floor mats are not weather sealed. To fix the 4X4 ECM youll need to take up all the flooring and sound proffing. They hold a lot of water and never real dry out. Next to replace the ECM its easyest to take out the drivers seat. Four blots hold it to the floor. The black box under the seat (under the floor mates) is the ECM for the transfer case. Replace that and get the conections in the wireing dry and you should be good.

SOURCE: door locks and power window

Just did this procedure I got from coloradofans.com forums:

"any type of power/voltage change seems to trigger this issue

The most common symptom is power locks fail and only the driver window quits, however that is on the extended cab.

Steps to fix and it works every time.

take door panel off driver's door
Disconnect the wiring attached to window and power lock control unit
disconnect battery cables
connect the negative to the positive cable(((NO BATTERY CONNECTED)))
This will act to short residual voltage in the system

5 minutes later
place the key in the ignition and turn to the run position
connect the wiring to the window/lock controller
connect the negative cable to the battery
then the positive
open drivers side door
turn key to the off position((do not remove yet)) you should get a series of dings through speakers telling you the key is still in the ignition
once it begins dinging pull the key out and you should hear the door lock solenoids trigger and the windows should work." - Coloradofans.com forums

My 2006 Denali truck gets water in the back passenger floor

Water in a rear foot well is usually from one of 4 places. A leaking sun roof, (if fitted), a leaking window seal, a leaking door seal or the feed pipe for the rear window wiper sprayer, (If one is fitted). Does it happen all the time or only when it is wet rain soaked weather. Door and window seals only leak in wet weather.
First check all the windows are wound all the way up And any sun roof is closed properly.
A way to test for the door and window leaks is to first dry everything out as best you can and then try this.
Use a garden hose set at a low pressure and wet just the door edges on the side that leaks. Try not to wet the sun roof as you can test that next. Use plenty of water. Walk away for 20 minutes or more to give the leak a chance to happen. When you return get into the vehicle from the OTHER side. Check to see if the carpet is wet again. A leaking window seal will often make the door card wet as well. Use this same method for checking a leaking sun roof.
The rear window wiper sprayer pipe runs under the carpet down the middle of the vehicle and will make the carpet wet in dry weather as well as when wet.

I found water on the floor on both sides of my 2006 Buick and on the back floor. There is no smell of antifreesze. Where is the water coming from

The weather strip around the door frame may be leaking. Less likely but still possible, there may be pin holes in the floor pan.

Power windows and locks

First of all never pay 130.00 dollars for a battery 50.00 dollars is about right or so for this vehicle .although 3 to 5 years is all it will last.
Your door and window problems are because water leaks in the drivers door falls down on the master control panel when the window is open this cause corrosion on the contacts pop the panel out with a small screw driver unplug them one at a time and clean them up and pop it back in place this goes for the mirrors to .

there may be a few things causing this, first make sure there no open holes in floor, then check trunk seal and make sure its not coming from trunk, next would be the back window,take a water hose and spray diffrent areas and check for leaks inside,could be also rubber around the back door or rust holes in wheel wells of rear wheels,

My 2006 pontiac g6 is leaking water and we dont know where it is coming from. the doors and windows are all dry. the floor is completely soaked

you will need to pull down the headliner around the sunroof, the drain tubes in the four corners come off constantly, I usually glue them back on to prevent this problem from recurring

We have a water leak in the drivers footwell of our discovery 3 2005, first appeared after torrential rain had windscreen replaced 4 months ago have put hose on window for half an hour does not seem to be...

I have a discovery 3 and I had the same problem with water in the footwell. The problem was blocked drain holes on the sunroof. The water overflows from the sunroof onto the headlining ( which is plastic coated so the water will not come through it) and then ran down the headlining to the "A" pillar. It ran down the back of the "A" pillar trim and then came out of the joint between the trim lower down by the door hinge area.

I have water leaking on the right rear floor passenger side

Sounds to me like your issue is with condensation from your air conditioner. The condensation isn't properly draining, probably from a damaged or clogged drain hose.
