Thanks for that. I just got over a really crappy day, and that laugh felt good. |cheers|

pull the kick pads, pull the vent door and reach inside and see if cavity is full of leaves and crude,take a vacume cleaner and clean left and right to the bottom,there is a drain hole at the bottom,clear it with a cloths hanger
