A/C Drain - Wet floor. I never see water under my car, with the A/C running.
I've shot compressed air (~110psi) into the A/C drain hole, and nothing happened.
After the A/C runs for a while, passenger's floor gets wet.
How do I fix it?

Factory forgot to hook up my drain plug when I bought my '98 new and I had water in my floorboard on my way home and turned around to take it back. The reconnected the drain hose or whatever quickly. So check and see if it's come undone.
Also, I've never used compressed air, but several years later, I got water in the floorboard again and used a hanger from underneath the car and had to stick it pretty far up the hole to unclog it...not sure compressed air would get it. I knew when I got it unclogged because water came flowing out all over me once I got it...

I have neither a tube (hose) nor a plug, just a hole?

However, the first thing I would try, if I were you, would be a coat hanger up the hole in the box in the engine compartment. I know you tried compressed air, but it wouldn't hurt to try a coat hanger too...
