water from were?

ok so here it is, i am currently still deployed but my wife keeps complaining about some sort of water leak from under the dash on the passenger side of my 03, i have told her repeatedly that i think its just condesation from the ac seeing as we live in Louisiana and the currents temps are high 90s, that is my diagnoses. BUT she thinks im wrong so here i am asking what else could it be oh and btw it hasnt rained a drop since the leak has started

 

Sounds like the Evaporator Core drain is clogged. There was a thread about that a while ago...

 

really? i will look this up

 

a search maybe? lol

 

maybe his is serious biz.. stuff a black cat in it?

 

What ^^ he said. I shoved a plastic zip tie in the tube of mine to make sure it wasn't pluged. I would think that the a/c would stink if it were pluged.

 

could also be i leak around the windshield.

not a tacoma but on our 97 camry the windshield leaked and every time it rained the water would run into the pass floor board and would just be a giant puddle of water sitting there.

 

mine was doing the same thing just took a air compressor and blew the dirt out

 

i will have my wife take it to get looked at, seeing i cant do it myself cause im in afghanistan, it will probly end up costing money that didnt need to be spent but whatever makes her shut up about it

 

Its simple to look at too bad someone close on the forum couldn't take a look for you.

 

condensate drain pan clogged, clean, & check coil for excessive dirt,dust,fuzz etc; clean also, change cabin filter too

 

There should be a rubber hose sticking out of the firewall in the engine compartment on the passenger side.

With the a/c running have her check there SHOULD be water coming out this hose onto the road below; if not the hose is plugged (with dirt and God knows what else) and filling up the plenum inside the cab and leaking out the two halfs onto the floor.

When I cleaned mine ALOT of water came out when I took the cover off inside the cab and cleaned it all out. Have a pail ready.

no cabin filter at lease in the 04

 

Shit, not even sure I have one, just talking from experience on other vehicles, I think I have one , fuck it have to check now...

 

or another way to see if its condensation is if she has the ac on the water will be cold if its a heater core it will be hot. mine is doing the same crap gotta get in there and fix it for now i have a plastic lid were it drips not enough time to get it done nowdays

 

x2 i was worried about this problem but this guy is right.
