Default A/C Leak?

Why is it that everytime I drive for more than 20 min when it is really humid out, My A/C starts to leak water out under the passenger side. It has never happened before. Is this condensation normal or is there something I can do about it?

If you mean outside of the car on the passenger side, it is normal.

Yes, it's just condensation. If it was a leak big enough to start dripping fluid, your ac wouldn't be cold anymore. Just for kicks, make sure it isn't coolant leaking.

if you mean inside the carit means your evaporator drain tube is full of debris. It needs to be cleaned out. And prolly your evaporator , too.<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by kupras &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">Why is it that everytime I drive for more than 20 min when it is really humid out, My A/C starts to leak water out under the passenger side.

God, I hate $#!!%@%*%!^&**^ing computers!!!
I just wrote a beautiful, very detailed description of exactly what to do to cure your leak and my $##@%%!!!&&^ mouse POS, jams and trying to unjam it I delete the post!!
I hate computers!!
Anyway the 2 easiest ways: Put car on lift, find drain tube opening.
Insert something, long, narrow and flexible, wait for water to gush out.
2nd way: Find where tube exits evaporator and goes into firewall.
Pull tube off evap. Have cup or bowl ready to catch water that's inside.
Insert probe into both bottom of evap. and tube. Ream out thoroughly.
If you have have anymore questions, just post em. I'm too aggrevated
to explain better, right now.
