Heating & Vent Sys Flooding! 02 Sonata
Hi Al,
Just started to get hot here in MD, so started using AC and it is flooding the car! Well, when you do a sharp left turn you get some Cold water on your feet! Not getting any AC puddle under the car like you usually see, so I think where ever it drips from is blocked. 02 Sonata 2.4L 105K miles on the clock:( Anyone know what is blocked? Thanks, Bryan |

See the posting from May 18, titled "01 Elantra. Water entering passenger compartment causing numerous problems..." Sounds like the same problem, or at least the same symptoms. |

I believe the Sonata has a little horseshoe shaped hose on the firewall
where the evaporator drains. You may wish to try pulling the hose off and sticking a screwdriver in the tube and gently moving around to check for blockages. |

NO! Use a wooden stick. The screwdriver is sharp at the end of it and
might do more harm than good. <<<<I believe the Sonata has a little horseshoe shaped hose on the firewall where the evaporator drains. You may wish to try pulling the hose off and sticking a screwdriver in the tube and gently moving around to check for blockages. >>>> |

> Thanks HyundaiTech, That cured my flooding problem. I pulled the rubber shoe off and inserted about 1 inch of my screwdriver blade. Moved it around and water gushed out! Never noticed an object blocking it. Maybe a spider built a web in it:) Thanks All, Bryan |

Sometimes some tree droppings and junk get caught there and need to be
nudged out of the way. |
