968 Newbie A/C problem

Hello All, I've recently purchased a 968 Cabriolet and normally condensation from the A/C runs beneath the car and onto the driveway. Today, I drove allot, and I would typically see the water dripping beneath the car when I parked it. But after my last run for the day, I noticed there was no water dripping under the car. I also discovered that the carpet on the passenger side was wet (clear water).



Did I over work the A/C unit? How can I prevent this from happening again? Do I need to take it to a shop?



Help!!!

ChuckB, After lots of labor, I was able to remove what looks like a $5 hose. I had to remove the center console (radio, clock, everything). Then I unbolted the support brackets for the dash board, and low and behold a little "S" shaped, dry rotted hose revealed its self. I used a hanger to poke the broken piece of hose out of the hole. Now I have to find this part somewhere and put everything back together.

Thanks for the tip, I guess my car just wanted to bond.
