Air conditioner is condensating and leaking in passenger side of vehicle. I have had a local Jeep repair shop blow out the line 2 or 3 times but I am still getting condensation and leakage. Is there something that can be added to clean from inside out (do it myself with a hanger, etc.)? Or is the only option pulling the dash? Dealer wants to charge 8 hours of labor just to see what the problem is which is more than likely debris blocking the drain ($500 or $600 to unclog drain??). Thank you
Here is what i find in the condensation drains of the AC systme, leaf matter is the numero uno, if the blower wasn't pulled and the leaf debris cleaned out then the problem will continue until it is cleaned. there is nothing to add, water is a by product of the air cooling process, the colder the air the less water it can hold suspended, so when you cool it it condenses out, that is why all ac systems have a water drain.
I had the same problem on 97-GC, The condensation drain has a foam gasket where it goes thru the firewall, this gasket is bad. The gasket fits between the HVAC housing and the firewall, you will need to pull the dash, you dont have to completely remove the HVAC housing just unbolt it and lift it up enought to get to the gasket. Its located at the very bottom of the housing you can see it when you pull the carpet back. I fixed mine on a saturday, pulling dash is a pain. Find a indenpendant repair shop preferable one that specializes in AC. wont take 8hr's, did mine in four.
