To be complete honest, I think the best solution is what John Hart did as noted below. His is the easiest and will never clog again. Mine has clogged twice and I have to use the keyboard cleaner to blow out the tube from under the car. What happens is I get water building up until and I can’t tell until,I take left hand turn. Once I do this i can here the water sloshing over and hitting the fan blades under the glove box.
Antonio, once I routed out the hole, I then put refrigerator water line over the straightened out coat hanger and fed thought the hole. I used two part gas tank putty to seal the tube exterior to the base of inside of evaporator tray.
Hello am having this same problem with my Endeavor, and i have watched this video good video but i have a question how do you get this hose to work in the place of original equipment i see you routing of the hose but you didn’t show the sealing of the leak or placement of the hose can you redo the video or send me a instruction so i can try and do this for my endeavor please.
hello dose any know use a air gun ?
U can find the a/c drain just south of you heater hoses next to the brake lines when your under the truck it a 3/4in hole On the 04 Mitsubishi Endeavor any way take your air gun put in hole blow way until u see H2O come running out . That is why tour floor in the truck is always damp with out the rain . hope I help you guy out . if you do not have a shop use car ramps and drive up on to them.
How is this holding up? Is the 1/4in hose barb coupling hole too small for this? Is it getting clogged up easily? send me a message or something. I have this same issue and I am not sure if I should relocate my drain line or do what you did. Please get back to me if you can. thanks.
@KerryJMoore Once you cut the hole in the condenser box, you will notice that the whole box itself is under positive pressure from the AC blower (located under glove box). JohnMHarte used a larger tube and went through his floor board, I imagine that he may have more cool air escaping and would be interested if he could verify if he feels air pressure coming out. The tube I used was the maximum I.D. Tube I could find that would fit through the existing drain. It’s refrigerator water supply lin
This is all very good info. I’m starting this project today and still debating which route to take. Do you feel the smaller hose is allowing the water to drain fast enough?
@Johnmharte thanks I actually could not have done it with out the work you posted previously on the Edmunds website. One point to note is that your fix allows for a larger opening and therefore more air flow which helps move the condensate out out of the drip pan. Conversely moving more water reduces humidity and should increase cooling efficiency. So in the end I actually think your method is better given it guarantees water flow and less susceptibility to clogging. The real problem is now g

Send an email to Lizmimi2012@gmail for the fix.
Thanks

In the mean time do u have any idea about how to reset the (service engine soon) light on the dash board?
i like your video, But i have done a more easy job to fix this problem in my car (2004 Mitsu Endeavor xls-awd)
I will try to make a video for it
Wow 560 views who would have thought!!!

Thanks for this, I scoured the web looking for a solution and I think this is it!
