Can't Find a/c drain thing 240dl

Jan 05, 2004 3 Replies

I can't find the little hole that pee's the water on my car. I've looked in the hood area right behind the motor on the passanger side. Where is this thing? It used to pee water and no it doesn't. I think it's clogged. I remember being able to hear it pee onto the muffler and hearing the sizzling noise. Can someone help me please? Point me to a brickboard archive, a helpful website with a picture maybe?



Thanks in advance, Hector


Hector, I have a set of pictures with instructions on my site for cleaning it out, look in the quick index Cheers Dave Shannon daveshan@SPAMMERS_SUCKcox.net (Spring Valley CA)

When I took off the tan piece of molding to the right of the a/c control etc. a great amount of leaves came out. How'd they get in there? I found the drain thing and it wasn't clogged. I also vacuumed out of the little hole. It does tinkle some water now. Might be back to normal. Yay.

Question: Would the car ever not generate water if it was cooling? It doesn't seem to generate as much water as other 'normal' cars. Why is that?

p.s. Thanks a bunch Dave.

If it's not cooling well it won't pull as much moisture out of the air so it won't drain as much water. The water is just condensation from the cold evaporator.
