Condensate drain line - Click HERE for Original Thread

My MDX is not draining away the condensate from the AC as it should. I'm certain that the drain line is clogged / plugged. Has anyone out there found out where it acutally comes out? The shop manual shows nothing, and web searches shown nothing.

Mine looks like it comes out just forward of the passenger seat.......

Found the sucker. I took out the glove box, and pulled out the pollen filter. You can see that the condenser coils are just inside the opening, to the left. The drain pan is below it, and slopes downward, forward, towards the fire wall. If you turn the wheels sharply to the right, you can see inward and upward, and see the hose coming off of the fire wall. Its a flimsy, half inch diameter hose that comes down, through a support, then just hangs there. Mine has crud on it from the dripping. Its not clogged though. It would take a lot to make it.

On my old Accord, this was a quarter inch diameter tube, and I had to clean it out more than once.

There are actually two lines, one for the forward evaporator, and one draining the rear evaporator. The second line is beneath the center console.
