Default Codensation in front floor 98 Lesabre

When using the a/c in my 98 lesabre liquid spills into front floorboards when turning corners. Does anyone know if there is a drain that might be clogged? I haven`t been able to figure it out. It is not coolant. Just water.

It most likely is condensate from the evaporator . In the engine compartment , on the passenger side,on the firewall down about 2 feet from the top of the firewall should be a rubber tube with a pinched end. That is the evaporator drain. They often get plugged up with leaves and junk and sometimes just pinching the tube will open it. If not carefully insert a piece of wire into the hose and clear out the obstruction. If there is any water in it , it will come out once opened up. Have a great day!
