Default Water on passenger floor

There is a pool of water on my passenger floor. I saw some threads talking about the A/C line being clogged. Anyone know where I can find this tube under the passenger dash?

I looked under there and didn't see anything that looks like it. I took off the plastic paned with the 3 clips, and didn't see anything as well.

It's not under the dash it's on the outside firewall. Not sure where exactly but just look for a black tube. It may have a 90 degree elbow on it. You can use a clothes hanger to unplug it. Just be careful and don't push the hanger to far in the tube.

Do I have to pull the tube out of anything to unplug it?

Thanks for the link!

Is it best to try and access this from underneath the car or?

My car started taking on water too on sunday after leaving a carwash.

At first I though I had a blown heater core, but the liquid was clear, scentless and tasted salty lol

I was going to rip the passenger carpet up tomorow and see what I could find, but then someone replied in another forum I posted pics in and eventually I found myself here.

I'll poke around tomorow under the car to see what I can find... hopefully I can find the opening although the picture in the linked thread leaves me a bit clueless on exactly where to find it... guess I'll just poke around in some holes till I get wet

I know this may sound funny.
Check that the passenger window goes all the way up.
Had this happen in a few cars the passenger motor are weak they seem like they go all they way up then when they hit the seal they stop and you think they are up.
From the driver seat you can not tell.
The windows get out of line and hit the seals wrong you think they are up and they are not.
Just check to make sure the window is going all the way up.
May not happen all the time.
I have had it happen to me so now I make sure the windows are up.

Good luck
