Water Dripping on Driver Side
Hello,
I have a 2002 Honda Civic that has some sort of issue. When I was driving it Sunday I noticed that my A/C wasn't really blowing as hard as it usually does, and it wasn't as cool as usual. A few minutes later I was stopping and some water dripped on my feet. When I felt around around my gas pedal, the carpet was wet.
After some research I think that it could be that the condensate line is clogged. Problem is I can't find where the condensate line is to clean is out and check for kinks.
Any help with where the condensate line is located and how to clean it would be appreciated. Maybe a picture or something.
Or other suggestions of what the issue is.
Thanks!

Here's the problem on an Accord. The guy found a kink in the drain tube under the passenger side dash:
I think it's the same on the Civic. I'll check once I get to my car.

Thanks for the quick reply Poopies. I've watched that video thinking my civic would be similar to that accord. I didn't have any luck though when I looked under passenger side dash. Maybe I am just overlooking it though. I'll recheck.
Re: Water Dripping on Driver Side
Haha I just checked and its not there... :-( I've been looking around here and it looks like it's under the car in the engine bay:

I'll check my trusty Chilton later for any more ideas.

I found it!
I had to jack my car up and just go in the bottom of the line. When I blew air into the line a bunch of water came out. A/C is working great now, and no draining on my feet.

Ok here's what the Chilton has to say about it:

It looks like it's right on the firewall.

I think I found it here:
Take the engine...
Follow my finger down past the intake...
I think it's this little tube.
Much easier to reach from under your car. I could only poke it with my fingertip lol! If you've got the stock airbox, I doubt you can see it from here.
