Unknown liquid

Earlier last night, I checked on my engine for a routine fluids check, being the middle of winter, and I noticed a liquid on the plastic cover of my fuse box. It seemed odorless, and colorless. But if it was water it should have been frozen. I’m thinking it is coolant, but how could it have gotten there. Any ideas?

It's totaled, sell it quick before it catches fire.
Next step: buy a civic.
















Condensation.

If it was on the outside of the cover ...... it was cricket piss.

If it was on the inside of the cover ...... it was perspiration from the fuses.

To rule out antifreeze ....... have a cat lick it; if the cat gets sick ...... it's antifreeze.

See post #2.

(jest tryen to keep up with ol @Mr .ac .......)
