1G leaking dash please help

[121xgigawatts]

Ok, so the other day on the way to maryland, I had the air condition on the entire trip. After about 3 hours of driving, i went around a sharp right turn, and tons of water was pouring out of the dash by my feet. I got home and took the center console apart, and the water is dripping from what I believe is the blower motor. Is there supposed to be a drain for this or is my somehow defective? Is this a common problem? The blower motor looks like a PITA to change. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Moved to problem diagnosis.

Virtually every AC'd car has a condensate drain off the Cold Coil inside the car - It may be possible to blow it clear from underneath the car if you can't find it from above.

Agreed. Sounds like the drain off the AC pan has gobbed up. Try some thick weed whacker line to hog it back out.

And stay away from horridly humid semi-reclaimed swamps like Maryland.

haha agreed to stay away from maryland. Thanks for the help. Does anyone know where the drain is. I climbed under the car and couldnt see anything. I dont have a service manual yet, if anyone does maybe it would be in there.

HAHAHA! I leaking Dash! Only in a DSM!!

BTW- I would imagine that you would want to push the gunk from the inside to out. If you start feeding the weedwacker line (or whatever you use) from the outside in, chances are whatever gunk you push out is gonna gunk it up again in a short amount of time. Good luck!
