When the A/C is running when I go around curves it drips on my foot on driver side. How can I fix it? Do I blow something out? If so where? Any diagrams?

Hello, I am Danny.

All heater/AC boxes have a drain for condensation. Sounds like yours is somehow plugged letting the condensation into the vents and onto your shoes. I have attached a picture. Most have a small rubber tube that is vented on the bottom of the firewall. I would try using a coat hanger or something to try to unplug whatever dirt/debris is blocking it up. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.

Hello again.

Yes, condensation is normal depending on weather of course. Since you have blow the line out is it still soaking the Interior floor?Thanks again for using 2CarPros.

I know condensation is normal but as slow as it dripping is it normal and not ran it enough to notice if it was pooling on floor again it is not making a slushing noise like it was but just have to run it a couple days and see.

Hello again.

It does seem to be a little more than usual. After the few days see if cleaning the the tube out might have helped. Was it kinked at all? Let me know what happens. Thanks again for using 2Carpros.

No was not kinked at all when I put it back on it had like a stream coming out for like five seconds then went down to dripping like in that video. Figured it might be some of the water that was left that was backed up so it not normal for it to drop like it was in the video should it drop slower.

Hello again.

It is usually a continuous slow drip. Is the floor still soaking?
