How to Find the AC Drain in a 1996 Honda Accord

The air conditioning system in a 1996 Honda Accord uses freon to cool down the air on the inside of the car. The cold created can create condensation, which causes a buildup of water in the system. To get rid of that water, the Accord has a drain on the air conditioning system. This drain can get clogged up over time, and if it does, you'll have water flowing into the cabin. To fix the issue, you need to find the AC drain so that you can figure out if the drain is plugged.

Things You'll Need

• Flashlight

Instructions

1. Pop the hood on the Accord using the hood latch. Locate the air conditioning compressor, which is mounted on the passenger side of the engine block.

2. Trace the two air conditioning lines running from the compressor to their junction at the firewall.

3. Shine the flashlight below the connection of the air conditioning lines and the firewall. Locate the black plastic drain plug, which is shaped like a capital L, and points towards the ground.
