ac leaking water inside

Post by azazel19 »

ac is leaking water on the passenger side floorboard not sure how to go about fixing this problem. was thinking about running a piece of wire through the condensate tube under the car. if anyone else has experienced this problem or knows of another culprit please let me know.

Hold on now...Are you sure it's condensation from the a/c system or coolant? If it's coolant then you have a leak in your heater core. This should either be replaced or the heater hose blocked off. The latter solution won't harm your car at all, but will mean you have no heater. I had the same thing happen to me December last year while on the road.

if the water is cold, clear, doesn't appear untill A/C is on and doesn't smell then it is the condensation pipe.

if the water is hot, smells, appears regardless of A/C operational state and associated with coolant level loss then it is the heater hore.
