Default water from the air conditioner

hey everyone,

I have a 94 ex coupe accord. My passenger side has enough water for a goldfish. I checked the hose that is goes out to the firewall and I thought that was the problem, but the car is still dripping water with the air conditioner on. Does anyone know how to check the evaporator canister? What the hell could be dripping?

Thanks,
Sid

that is all it is..... no problem with the car just the air conditioning just you lines sweating from the outside humidity and dripping on the ground.. most all cars drip on the passenger side

you ripped out your a/c! was that hard, i mean you have a good reason to because it will suck power, but was there a lot envolved with that? and what about when you need the defroster because when you run it with the a/c button on it does a hell a lot better in my opinion

Hey sidwin,
You may want to look a little farther than just checking the a/c drain hose, meaning the hose itself may not be clogged, but the drain stem on the evap casing may be blocked, all it takes is one little leaf to bock off the evap drain..
Try taking the drain hose off the casing and stick pen,pencil ( I use the end of a coathanger) in the casing stem and see if any water comes out...
