Damp patch on carpet from A/C. 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Ontheball! on  Mon Aug 18 20:29 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Dear All

After running the a/c yesterday I noticed a damp patch on the front carpet. I know this is probably a blocked a/c drain hose but where is it?

My car is Right Hand Drive (UK model) so should I look behind the glove box or the drivers side?

Thanks

    Damp patch on carpet from A/C. 850 1995

    The A/C drain hose is located behind the radio. You remove the driver side (UK) plastic kick panel and then pull out the carpet next to the radio. Remove the vertical plastic panel (black in colour ?). You should see the A/C drain hose. You pull the hose up and clean it up.

    Are you sure that the damp patch is water not coolant ?
