Where is....

The EVAP core????

My evap core went bad and my car REEEKS!!!! It smells like something Died in there!
I haven't really looked under the dash, I haven't had much free time. Can anyone please tell me where it is. I know It's under the dash, but specifically where. And I do have to take out the dash right?


Thanks Adam

The evap is a component of the A/C system and if it goes the car won't reek. Follow the A/C lines through the firewall, the evap is on the other side in the HVAC box.
Sure it's not the heater core? In same location, but follow the heater hoses and they attach to the heater core.

I'm not exactly sure what it is, I think one of the hoses or something under the dash went bad, where it is collecting water or mold or something. The only thing I suspect down there is the evap and all the lines.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what it might be? I'm also going to check the firewall and the windshield to see if anything can get through like water. ( I had my windshield replaced recently, it could possibly be leaking water) I also live in South Florida, very hot, very humid, and very wet (rains alot). Any input would be greatly appreciated.
