Wet Passenger Toes

When running the A/C we are getting drip drops on the passengers toes. I can't remember what that thing is that I need to do to unplug whatever is plugged up. I tried to do a search using varius terms with A/C, leaking, dripping etc. and did not find a correct write up.

Can someone tell me what/how I need to fix this problem or point me in the right place to find one that has already been posted.

Thanks,
RC

This happened in my cavalier a few years ago, since it was under warranty i took it in
and all they did was blow out the little rubber hose that drains the condensation out of the evaporator box.
Hopefully someone here will know where the drain is on these trucks.

When the truck is parked do you notice a wet spot outside from the AC? The drain is probably plugged up

I agree with Patrick and Jim, look uder the truck for condinsation dripping under inside the passenger side tire area, if none there, its prolly clogged..

sounds like the drain tube in clogged. you can't see it on an e-series (you need someone with small hands to get to it). i don't know about the f-series.
