Hello folks,

I am trying to track down what bad part/blockage would cause water to dump all over the passenger side carpet after the A/C has been running for 45 minutes or so. I had to mop it up with 4 towels today, and I'm trying to figure what could cause this before it does more damage.

Evaporator? Condenser? Drier? Constipated tube that I can't see?

Water tube is plugged in the cabin unit (is that the evap or the condensor...I can't recall). Bentley's should be able to locate the tube.

evaporator, The condensor condenses the high pressure gas coming from the compressor, it condenses it from gas to liquid..

At any rate , yes the condensate drain is plugged

I know at least there is one tube on the driver's side that you should be able to access by removing the small panel near your right shin(while sitting in the driver's seat). There might be a tube on the other side as well, I don't recall.

Thanks. So, basically a condensate drain is blocked.
