Q: rwv oscman50@cox.net wrote in have a 2002 dakota used and this just started a week ago. water is getting in the front passanger foot well. i have removed the carpeting from the floor boards and when i run the a/c i can see a little stream of water running down from the unit under the glove box. i assume that the drain for condensation might be clogged but i cant find it. anybody have any ideas i know that its not the heater core i had heater running and no water. stumped in virginia i just had this fixed on my 03 last week. theres a tsb for it 23- 010-04 dont know if thats the number for an 02 but its the same issue. its when the drain tube gets clogged and the water seeps into the cab. the tsb calls for them to unclog the drain tube and seal up the firewall so nothing gets in there. the drain tube sticks out of the firewall into the engine compartment right behind the a/t transmission tube and right behind the exhaust manifold. heres a link to a good discussion on the topic http//www.dodgedakotas.com/boards/gen/3240.html take it into the dealer and have them take care of the tsb before you put the carpet back. or bring them the carpet and have them clean it and dry it. btw febreeze works very well in getting the odor out of the carpet. just use a lot of it and make sure the carpet is totally dry before reinstalling. joe black 03 dakota 5.9 r/t cc calypso green 93 mustang 5.0 lx hatch with a few goodies .
