Default AC drain

Ran into a little issue today. It’s been very hot/humid this month and, when using the AC, I can hear water slouching around behind the dash. Never was a problem until today when water started dripping out from behind the passenger side fuse panel ( this is a 1994 convertible w/4.0L engine).

Does anyone know where the AC system should be draining off excess moisture.

If you look under the car, each side of the gearbox, but high up in the tunnel, you will see a plastic drain tube. Poke a bit of wire up each tube.

With my trans out, I can get a picture of the AC drains.

Found them. Had a tooth pick stuck in the passenger side drain. How that got in there I'll never know.
