No, I'm serious.

My A/C stinks after I turn it on after it's been sitting for a while. It also sometimes piddles on the front passenger's feet. Today, I took a 55 MPH turn on a 25 MPH exit ramp, and the car leaned strongly to the left. Then, I was met with a gigantic splash of cold, wet water on my ankles. My A/C is pretty ice cold, so I know it works well. What's causing my car to stink and pee on its front passengers? A friend said that it's some sort of clogged drain line from the evaporator. How can I access this? It sounds simple and inexpensive to repair...

all and any advice is wanted and appreciated.

 

The evaporator case has a drain on it. Yours needs to be cleaned out.
Blow into the drain tube with compressed air.
I'm not sure of the drain tube location for your YEAR & MODEL

There are several types of cleaners on the market to clear the mold from the Evaporator coils.
To prevent mold shut off the A/C and run the fan on high/fresh air for a short while before you shut off the car to help clear moisture from the evaporator.

I've been running it on fresh with the AC off for several mins after I turn the system off for some time now. I also cleared the drain pipe in the evaporator case, as well as removed the crud that had built up there over the past 13 years. I was very thorough. But...

IT'S STILL HAPPENING.

 

You didn't clean all of it then.

The AC drain plugs there are basically what does that.

You still haven't posted what car you have though?

 

No... water freely comes out of the drain pipe. It's fully clear, for sure.

I have a '96 EX Wagon (so, obviously F22B1, auto, OBD-II). I'm pretty sure all the water has ruined some electronics. My ABS light has gone on and I can hear the door open beep through the stereo speakers (it comes in through the antennae lead, if I unplug that, this won't happen).

So, I've basically set it on recirc so it sucks air out of the foot well into the blower/evap assembly, I never use the A/C anymore (even though it works very well), and have taken off the glovebox.

 

The drain pipe might not be connected at all, check that too.

Naw, because it drains onto to ground outside the car.
