Blocked AirCon Drain
Ian Pearson - 23/9/06 at 11:06 AM

As the title says, have any of you got any suggestions on how to access and clear the air con drain on a Puma? It's been blocked for a while now, and SWMBO is pressuring me to use my negligable mechanical skills to sort it out.

Regards, Ian.

I had a blocked air con drain on my fiesta a few years ago and water ended up in the footwell areas.

I seem to remember finding a small outlet under the car and using a length of copper earth wire to push up and clean it out, this was a few years ago and I cant fully recall everything but I may have also been able to just get at the drip tray in the car.?

May have time later to day to have a look agian at my fiesta as it is the same as the puma. If I do I will post exactly how I did it tonight.

IIRC theres a rubber gromet thing on the drivers side front floor underneath. If u get under neath you should be able to poke up it with a bit of stiff wire. Youl know when its unblocked cos itl run down your arm.
