Aircon Leaking

Post by Ultred »

Hi all.
My 2000 Lux started leaking from under the dash on the passenger side. Seams its damming up somewhere and as soon as I take a sharp right the water comes streaming out. Only starts doing this once the Aircon has run for a while.
Is there some knowledge on this out there and is there some one or some place I can have it fixed.

Check if the condensation outflow pipe is still connected to the aircon box above the passengers feet. There is a small drainage pipe that leads through the firewall from it.

This little pipe can easily be kicked out by footloose passengers jamming to tunes inside.

It's just condensation. There may be a tray under the evaporator that could also have a blocked outlet.
Wishing my life away till the next trip!
