Car Air Conditioning Hoses
where is the air conditioning drain hose for the 97 mitsubishi eclipse?
I have a wet passenger floor (both front and back seats) in my 97 mitsubishi eclipse rs hard top. It only happens whenever the a/c light is on (defogger/defogger & foot setting). I heard it’s either a hole in my heater core or the air conditioning drain hose is clogged. I don’t believe its heater core because the heat works fine and there is no smell of coolant in the car, and when I dab the carpet dry there is no color to it. The blower fan does make a weird kind of rubbing noise whenever the heat is on but I don’t think its related. Does anyone know where the a/c drain hose is on this car as I want to try unclogging it with a wire or hose. I thought it was under the car but couldn’t find anything. Thank you
couldn’t find it in either location, there is no hose at all once I lift the carpet up and none visible if I look up the footwell. This thing is killing me, I rebuilt 2 engines, and do all car work myself but can’t find a a/c drain hose haha
Get in the car and pull the carpet back on the passenger side. You will find a hose going through the floor that can be pulled very carefully out of the floor, and in some cases detached from the A/C housing and cleaned.
It’s unwise to poke wires into the A/C housing as you can puncture the core.
Use a vacuum cleaner hose to unclog it.
Smoking in the car is the number one cause of A/C drains clogging
