A/C Clogged Condensate Tube

I have 2021 Ford Explorer with the 4 cylinder engine. I keep getting water on my floor mats from under the dash. From what I've read it sounds like a clogged a/c condensate tube. I just can't find it. If anyone give help me out with pics or explanation of where it is and how to access it I would be very appreciative. Thank you.

Have you laid underneath it and looked for telltale signs of where the water has been dripping?
on edit: underneath the frame that is. Then a thin flexible line can be inserted and feel for resistance from any blockage.
Once done then proceed with the cleaning kit.
A evap cleaning kit is available and the one I like is from Toyota.
The Car Care Nut has a video on how to perform the maintenance.
Also many 4rnr owners have been adding drain tube extension to avoid water on the frame.
So should be able to find water drip marks pretty easy.
