A/C Drain

My 1996 Nissan pickup is leaking water into the passenger side floor. The water is coming from a clogged A/C condensation drain. Anybody know how to fix this properly. I took it by a shop and they blew air through the drain. That worked for one day. How do I access the drain pan and clean it out?

Thanks

Try taking out the glove box and lower panel. Then run the AC and see where exactly the water is coming from.

Thanks, that's sort of what I thought. I'll do that, Just as soon as i can bust that $$#% stripped screw off of there.

I pulled the panel off @ 5 years ago and reached in there and pulled out a bunch of pine needles and seemed to fix it. I was wondering if the is a "technical" way to go about it.

Run a coathanger up the drain hose that comes out at the rear of the passenger-side wheel opening bottom of the firewall.
