AC not draining!
 
Hey all,

Lately the floor of my 240 and my wife's feet are getting soaked when I turn left. And my feet get hosed when I turn right. I'm thinking it has something to do with running the AC here in the east coast were it is so humid because we didn't have a problem with this in the dry Idaho weather. Anyone know how to get this water to drain properly? The water seems to come from the middle of the car right behind the blower.

Your drain holes are most likely clogged with leaves...there ias one on either side of the chassis under the car. Need to blow them out with forced air. You probably also have some leaves or debris behind your blower motor..these are a pain to remove..start by blowing out your drain holes first. Good luck!!

Thanks
 
Bubba, thanks for the help. Looks like cleaning the drain from the condensor got it fixed. Two days of letting it air out and it's dry again. When I asked for help I had no idea how much water was going to be under the mats in the carpet. Took a couple of towels to get it all soaked up.

Volvoguy, where do I access the two drains (on either side of the chassis) that you talk about?
