Title: WJ wet carpet, drivers side
Post by: gregwho on February 03, 2016, 09:20:55 PM

I thought I'd treat the inside of my WJ to a bit of a carpet clean (dont think i've ever done it in 9 years of owning it  :icon_biggrin: ) and lo and behold I found the drivers side front carpet is soaked...which might explain the bad condensation I get.

Doing a quick google shows that the AC drain plug can become blocked with nasty gunk and the water can back up, but videos and pictures really dont show where it is.  Does anyone know specifically where the drain is and best way to clear it?

Are there any other common causes I should look into?

Cheers

the AC drain is in the  engine bay below the heater/AC pipes under the sound deadening mat, on the passenger side.
If you look under the glove box the molding that sticks down into the foot well going into the corner by the tunnel is it.
They block up because they don't have a filter under the wiper panel just a grill.
Just use a length of wire with a hook on the end to clean.
