I have a 2001 camaro

when I run the AC I get water leaking onto the floor on the passenger side
not sure why..
Need suggestions and advice on how to fix this
including a basic description of what I'm going to have to take apart to get at the problem to fix it..


Thanks

Normally there is a drain tube in the climate box that dumps under the car, sounds like yours might be plugged or something.

im willing to bet the drain is clogged. find it and clean it out and you should be good.

It's on the bottom of the AC Box under the Hood. Clean out that area..sounds like some crap got in there.

like I can probably get to it from under the car? or do I get to it from the top?

passenger side? towards firewall?

DomesticDisturbance

yea passenger side towards firewall but im not sure what the best way to get to it is.

shaun

dirt and bugs can get up there and clog it up.
i had a mustang where those little tiny beatles made a nest in that tube and it was leaking on the floor board.
got a hanger and cleared it out.

I use compressed air and my long blow gun to open them up. If not available to you a clothes hanger works fine.
