Is your waste tank full. Most machines have a float operated switch to cut the engine when the waste tank fills. but they can get stuck meaning the blower will pull waste water through.

When you say one of the exhaust I can only assume that your machine has separate ones for the blower and engine. I would also assume that each of these exhausts has a heat exchanger to warm the water. I guess its could be one of these is a goner.  :(
